24 CPD FOCUS INTRODUCTION TO THE LRWA KNOWLEDGE SHARING HOLE TRUTH ABOUT VENTILATION
UNDERSTANDING UK BUILDING REGULATIONS RELATING TO RESIDENTIAL VENTILATION
The LRWA announces the lauch of its RIBA approved CPD presentation, exclusively available online for specifiers, architects, and surveyors; allowing time conscious professionals the opportunity to gain CPD points without having to set aside a specific time during the working day to go out and attend a seminar. Specifiers who complete the CPD will also be able to understand the technical and financial benefits of specifying liquid applied roofing and waterproofing systems, as well as learning about the product and installation standards that have been set within the industry to ensure optimum performance is achieved. 0207 448 3859

FACADES AND FIRE SAFETY: ROUTES TO COMPLIANCE
Engineers have to take into account a dizzying array of factors when deciding what ventilation design to select within a building. These include: energy efficiency, indoor air quality, the presence and type of contami- nants and the impact of potential noise pollution. All this in tandem with an airtight building envelope means there is a lot more to specifying ventilation louvres than simply working out aerodynamic performance and keeping out the rain. That’s why Ruskin Air Management offer a CIBSE accredited seminar aimed at outlining the process of selection and siting of louvres. 01746 761921

TWO NEW RIBA ASSESSED CPD SEMINARS FROM COMAR
This CPD from Airflow Developments, discusses the reasons why we need to improve indoor air quality in residential buildings and the Building Regulations that need to be adhered to for delivery of an effective, compliant ventilation strategy. The course will cover the following topics: • Building Regulations and how they apply to the specification of a ventilation system
•Understanding Compliance Guides and their place in the specification process
•Good, better, best – From a simple extractor fan How Mechanical Ventilation with heat recovery can provide the complete ventilation solution
•A system is only as good as the ducting installation – The do’s and don’ts of installing a system
Millboard has launched their first RIBA Assessed CPD seminar. The seminar will help architects understand the requirements and priorities for outside flooring, regulations for outside flooring areas, properties of resin mineral boards, identify potential applica- tions, design considerations for specific areas and best practice. This CPD seminar has been designed to educate architects about resin mineral board for outdoor flooring, the options available and the ways in which they can be customised to the specific design needs of the client and blend in with building design. 02476 439943
