Introduction to HTM 63 & 64

Health Technical Memoranda (HTM) are a series of documents “which provide specification
and design guidance on building components for health buildings which are not adequately
covered by current British Standards.”¹

The HTM 63 document covers fitted storage systems suitable for health buildings such
as cupboards, open storage units, shelves, drawer units and worktops. The document
recommends that worktops to be manufactured in either linoleum faced material, plastic
laminate faced material or stainless steel.

The recommendation to use stainless steel for plain worktops is where durability and
strength are the main performance criteria. For worktops requiring dished, sink bowls,
drainers and hopper units stainless steel is the recommended material where these
elements can be incorporated at an economical cost. The worktop profile required for all
materials has recommended front and rear radii and finished section sizes which can be
achieved in stainless steel using purpose made tooling.

HTM 63 AND

HTM 64

Copies of the most recent
copy of HTM documents can
be obtained from HMSO via
the web site:
www.tso.co.uk/bookshop
(HTM63 ISBN 0113212429,
HTM64 ISBN 0113217625).

The HTM 64 document covers sanitary products such as Urinals, WCs, Basins, Baths,
Plaster sinks, Scrub-up troughs and Disposal units. Certain products are recommended to
be made in ceramic material and others in stainless steel according to the application. The
recommendation to use stainless steel is, in some cases, due to the size and shape of the
unit would be unsuitable to be manufactured in ceramic. For other products, such as sinks
and bowls, stainless steel is the accepted material for this type of unit where durability and
strength are the main performance criteria.

The guidance given in the HTM 64 document is for ducted services and surface mounted
service installations. The document also includes details of recommended fixing heights,
material type and finishes and fittings for water and waste.

Other Information Sources

Health Technical Memoranda are available on the “design, installation and running of
specialised building systems”¹ and relating to HTM 63 and 64 are HTM 68 on duct and
panel assemblies and HTM 71 on materials management modular storage.

Additional information relating to Hospital and Medical fittings can be found in Health
Building Notes (HBN) which are “a series giving advice to project teams designing and
planning new buildings and adapting or extending existing buildings.”²

Health Guidance Notes (HGN) are also available which is “an occasional series of
publications which respond to changes in Department of Health policy or reflect changing
NHS operational management. Each (HGN) deals with a specific topic and is complimentary
to a related Health Technical Memoranda.”²
