Brett Martin launch Rooflight CPD
Brett Martin Daylight Systems has produced a new RIBA-approved CPD seminar for architects and construction professionals, Specifying Rooflights to Meet the Demands of the Next Generation, which looks at the rationale behind designing with rooflights to achieve sustainable, low carbon buildings.
The hour-long CPD seminar is designed to improve the level of understanding of the benefits of daylight and why rooflights are a fundamental design consideration for energy efficient buildings.
The presentation takes an in-depth look at some of the technical issues that need to be taken into consideration such as rooflight thermal performance, solar overheating and ventilation, and how rooflights must be installed in-line with manufacturers' instructions to ensure buildings perform as designed.
The seminar also covers industry guidelines and requirements to meet stringent fire classification and safety standards, and concludes with guidance and practical advice on specifying rooflights using case study examples.
Delivered by Brett Martin's Area Business Managers, who are frequent collaborators with architects, specifiers, designers and local authorities, the seminar can be delivered to architectural practices nationwide. Brett Martin can either host the seminar in the architectural practice own premises or in any one of the company's offices situated throughout the UK or Ireland.
The seminar sits within the RIBA Core Curriculum - Designing and Building it, along with Climate and Compliance.
Other seminars offered by Brett Martin Daylight Systems include the RIBA-approved CPD: Polycarbonate - The Natural Choice for Design Flexibility and Freedom.
