Regulation Search Engine

📜

Instant access to UK building regulations, CDM requirements, fire safety rules and environmental standards, right on your phone. Searchable, bookmarkable and written in plain English so you can brief your team without a law degree.

The Problem

UK building regulations are scattered across dozens of approved documents, guidance notes and statutory instruments. When a question comes up on site like “What is the minimum headroom for this staircase?” or “Do we need a fire stopping certificate here?”, the answer is buried in a PDF you do not have to hand. You either guess, delay the work until someone checks, or make a decision and hope it does not come back to bite you at inspection.

How It Works

Full UK Regulation Library

FORGE Command includes the complete library of UK building regulations covering structural safety, fire safety, ventilation, drainage, electrical installations, CDM requirements, environmental standards and accessibility. Every regulation is indexed and searchable by keyword, topic or document reference.

“Explain Like I’m Briefing My Team” Mode

Every regulation article includes a plain-English summary designed for site briefings. No legal jargon, no ambiguous clauses. Just a clear, practical explanation of what the regulation means for your work on site. Share it directly with your team via the app.

Bookmark & Share

Bookmark the regulations you reference most frequently so they are one tap away. Share specific articles with colleagues, subcontractors or clients directly from the app. Build a personalised library of the rules that matter most to your current project.

Offline Access

The entire regulation library is available offline. Search, read and bookmark regulations even when you have no mobile signal. This is critical for basement works, rural sites and any location where connectivity is unreliable.

🔍

Who Benefits Most

Site Managers use it to answer compliance questions on the spot instead of delaying work. Contracts Managers reference specific regulations during client meetings and dispute resolution. Foremen use the plain English summaries to brief trades on requirements before work begins.

Use it alongside the Audit & Inspection Engine to verify compliance standards during inspections, or reference regulations when writing formal communications via the AI Email Command Centre.
