BSRIA and The Concrete Society have pooled their technical knowledge to provide both professions with consistent interlocking advice.

Section headings cover early design issues, structural design, services detailed design, services fixings to concrete, integrated systems, refurbishment. In order to demonstrate how many of the key interfaces should be handled, it includes a recent project as a case study: The concrete-framed headquarters for the SAS Institute in Buckinghamshire.
