The authors of the Production Drawings and Project Specification Codes

This Code incorporates the principles set out in our earlier publications Production Drawings - A Code of procedure for building works and Project Specification - A Code of procedure for building works. They remain relevant but developments in computer technology now provide the means to implement them more effectively.
