Interviewer instructions

Against item 2, serial numbers of construction 1 & 2 are already printed. Against item 3, type of construction will be recorded in codes in different columns. If there was one construction 'at the present premises' and one 'elsewhere, columns (3) and (5) with serial number 1 are to be used for recording information for these constructions. All columns are to be used when there are two constructions 'at the present premises' and two 'elsewhere'.
For construction of an entirely new building code 1 will be recorded. If extension of existing building results in the increase of floor area, it is to be considered as addition to floor area and code 2 will be recorded for such construction. Any type of remodelling, renovation or major repair work is to be treated as alteration/improvement/major repair and code 3 will be recorded for such constructions.
