I'm no expert on manufacturing, but the Domestic Metal Boards for AMD 3 will have cost manufacturers a fortune in R&D and new tooling for manufacturing. Whereas there insulated boards that they already make would have similar profit margin and they are already setup to make. Not to mention probably vast stock levels that had already been produced that they no longer have a market for.

And after all that investment, they may need to ditch it all and start again with AFDD's. If manufacturers have a vested interest in it all, they have a strange way of showing it if you ask me.

I dunno; its a reasonable attempt by someone to interpret the non plain English & ambiguities of book, written by some quasi scholars & academics, including the likes of NICEIC etc. As they all in cohorts with compiling BS7671 etc etc, and the On-site-guide or the Site Guide, shame they just can't have a directness of speech & writing in the first place.

Has got some pretty pictures, which the 'Regs' lacks.

The OSGs are good for rainy days in a caravan in Wales.
Hours of fun playing find the mistake.
