Many decades ago a small pocket book arrived on the building scene. It contained information on a range of building practices together with some good sound advice. It rapidly became a useful reference source and aide memoir for builders and architects.

July 2012 sees the publication of a new edition, It is now thicker and contains even more data. The handbook is called: ‘The Book of Wise Decisions’. Many consider it the definitive guide containing building details and best practices relating to the building envelope.

It’s publisher, Cavity Trays Ltd is the longest-established specialist in its field and the only one awarded European Technical Approval. The handbook steers specifier and contractor in the direction of compliant solutions that are cost effective and easy to use.

*At a recent survey conducted at DCE CPD seminar events, over 96% of readers of previous editions requested the latest edition be sent to them as soon as available. Many asked for multiple copies, so they also have one to hand in the office, site hut and even the builders van!
