RAAC Playbook
Helping you to confidently assess the presence and condition of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) in buildings.
The RAAC Playbook is a comprehensive resource designed to help construction professionals, estate managers, and stakeholders confidently assess the presence and condition of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) in buildings.
Combining the best publicly available information, it provides a standardised approach for assessing RAAC, addresses knowledge gaps, and supports ongoing research. This first draft offers essential guidance on living with and addressing RAAC across both public and private estates.

Securing £3m from Innovate UK enabled crucial research into RAAC, focusing on Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) to identify RAAC in buildings and assess its condition. This funding supported industry collaboration to develop automated methods for rapid, cost-effective assessments and investigate solutions for RAAC replacement or monitoring. The programme also laid the groundwork for a future training programme and the creation of the RAAC Playbook, which aggregates key insights and provides a draft framework for addressing RAAC issues across industry and government, paving the way for a standardised approach.
