                  RIGHT                       Tolerances tables
                                              In Build 156 Tolerances tables, we outlined some of the allowable construction 
                                              tolerances for a quality result. We have now revisited this information and 
                                              added some more for plasterboard and fibrous plaster, an area that can cause 
                                              disagreements between contractors and clients.
