In preparing your response please note the following

Some of the definitions in the Standard may not seem relevant in IPMS Industrial Buildings. We are working towarda single set of definitions to cover all asset classes.

Some of the Definitions have been fine-tuned from those contained IPMS Office Buildings.After we have completed the Residential, Industrial and Retail Asset classes we will correct any anomalies in issued Standards. As an example of the fine tuning, we have adopted a clearer approach to defining Internal Dominant Face. We have not however changed the concept of Internal Dominant Face merely improved the approach to defining the concept having regard to the feedback we have received.

All consultation responses will be published on the IPMSC website ( in a document titled ‘IPMS: Industrial Buildings Consultation Feedback.’ Please enter your name as anonymous, if you do not wish for your name to be entered in the consultation feedback document.
