Construction Information Service
Construction Information Service has a wide variety of British Standards related to the construction industry available and RGU has a subscription to the core collection but not the extra supplement. The standards are primarily related to the construction industry but there may be relevant material for engineering and business as well.
Once logged in you can browse to find standards using the series option:
Alternatively you can search for them using the title or the standard number.
Once you locate a standard click it to open up the bigger record and then use the download button to see the full document.
Print Standards
RGU has access to a small selection of British Standards available in print. These are bought when requested by academic staff.
To see if we have the standard you are interested in simply go to LibrarySearch and search for the standard numbers or title. If we have the standard in question it will appear in the results list. Look for the location and if located in the level 2 store make a request at the main reception desk for it to be retrieved for you.
The British Standards available in print are for reference use only and will need to be consulted within the library.
