Design of Multi-Flue Chimneys
The first serious attempt at reducing air pollution in this country was contained in the Alkali, Etc., Works Regulation Act of 1906. This Act set up the system of Alkali Inspectors and gave them power to limit the emissions from certain chimneys associated with chemical works. The design and construction of chimneys and flues was, until 1965, covered by numerous local authority by-laws but these were replaced with the introduction of the Building Regulations 1965 and 1972. For London, the London Constructional By-laws apply. The present requirements are aimed at reducing fire risk and avoiding the release of flue gases inside buildings. It is a requirement that flues be constructed of non-combustible material in such a way as to prevent the flue gases having an undue effect in adjacent areas.
