You can book any of these six CPDs as in person or online sessions:
Green Roofs
Green roofs can reduce a building’s energy consumption for cooling by up to 25% in the summer months! As architects, you play a crucial role in shaping sustainable and resilient buildings, and green roofs are an ideal way to improve thermal performance, enhance stormwater management, enhance biodiversity and create landscaped rooftop spaces. Our Green Roofs CPD covers:
- Understanding the various types of green roof systems
- The importance of a full system
- The benefits of using a green roof system
- Understanding of vegetation types & their needs
- Specifier guidance on system selection and design
- All illustrated by real-world case studies!
Sustainable Roofing Solutions
This CPD presentation delves into the latest advancements and best practices in eco-conscious roofing, offering crucial insights for developing systems that excel in performance while contributing positively to environmental goals. Participants will:
- Gain in-depth understanding of sustainable roofing materials and techniques
- Learn how to achieve environmental targets and enhance project sustainability
- Stay updated with industry trends and regulations in sustainable construction
Liquid Waterproofing
Liquid waterproofing systems can be an ideal choice for many roofs and balconies but, with an array of systems available, what are the key considerations for selecting a system that delivers on buildability and performance? This CPD session provides an understanding of:
