About RDL
Robust Details Limited (RDL) is a non-profit distributing company limited by guarantee. The business started in May 2004, in response to the house-building industry's need for an alternative to pre-completion sound testing to satisfy Part E of the Building Regulations (England and Wales). RDL funds the Part E Robust Details scheme primarily from plot registration fees. Other sources of income include income from Handbook sales, Handbook subscriptions and type approval fees.
Our Role
- Approve new Robust Details as a method of satisfying Building Regulations
- Manage the use of Robust Details in the house-building industry by enabling builders or their representatives to use them in new, attached homes
- Monitor the performance of Robust Details and withdraw any that consistently fail to meet the required standards
- Promote the use of Robust Details and publish information to help the industry improve the sound insulation performance of separating walls and floors in new homes
- RDL is the only body to undertake this role, under the authority of Statutory Instruments 2004 1465 & 1466
