ARCHIVE: Defects and rectifications, 1st edition, RICS guidance note (December 2013–June 2018)

Published August 2024

Aimed at construction professionals who manage defective construction work or those who have to address the consequences when it occurs.

This is part of RICS' Black Book, which is a collection of technical practice documents that covers all processes throughout the construction project life cycle. The documents are essential development tools for junior professionals working through their APC and useful guides to best practice for more experienced professionals.

A project is currently underway to review and update the Black Book content with the aim of producing a comprehensive new edition. Expected to publish in 2025, the new Black Book will comprise an overarching global professional standard, accompanied by practical guidance material.
