About BOHS P402 Asbestos Surveying
Where a building is known or presumed to contain asbestos-containing-materials (ACMs) an asbestos survey must be completed in order to: establish whether ACMs are present and if so record what specifically they are, where and how much there is; record how accessible any ACM is, its condition, and any surface treatment; and record the asbestos type found.
