We want to help architects, consultants and contractors to improve, maintain and broaden their knowledge and skills by offering free industry relevant CPD seminars as well as participating in the CIBSE Continuing Professional Development Programme.
Explores the use of phase-change materials to provide natural cooling in combination with ventilation systems to reduce a building’s energy consumption and carbon footprint.
Explains the ventilation strategies to achieve air quality, thermal comfort and energy efficiency requirements. Showcases building simulation tools such as IES and BIM modules.
Considers the design standard BB101 for Schools focussing on ventilation and indoor air quality. Explains the 2018 changes. Explains the differences between natural, hybrid and mechanical ventilation systems and the role of building simulation to assess design performance.
