Continuing Professional Development (CPD)

Learning Objectives:

• To learn about the different market segments of industrial coatings and corrosivity categories depending on the environmental conditions
• To understand the need of fire protection and the compliance with Building regulations, national and international standards
• To discover the different passive fire protection solutions – performance, legislations, maintenance
• To learn what is the main goal of passive fire and the types of application. This will also include technical and specification support
• To explain the difference between a single pack and a two-pack intumescent coating

Provides an awareness of the underlying contributors that lead to the deterioration of reinforced concrete. It also seeks to look at examples of and explain the primary cause of distress, gives guidance in selecting appropriate repair and remedial strategies and looks finally at modern material technologies. This includes repair mortars, corrosion inhibitors and protective coatings.

This CPD provides typical problems associated with car park structures and product selection criteria. The different applications of a waterproofing system and the management and maintenance of structures in accordance with the ICE document. Industry standards will be discussed and some representative case studies of both refurbishment and new build structures in line with the new British and European Standard BS EN 1504 will be shown.

Learning Objectives:  

• Improve understanding of the characteristics of the main resin flooring types
• Improve understanding of key considerations for specifying seamless resin flooring
• Enhance awareness of the relevant standards for further reference
• Enhance knowledge of advanced systems and technologies of resin flooring materials

Learning objectives:

• To learn about flat roofing expertise and experience in proving flat roofing excellence and quality
  
• To review how reinforced bitumen membranes (RBMs) have traditionally been the flat roofing system of choice
• To understand the compliance requirements of the Safe2Torch/NFRC campaign and why it came about
• To discover next generation of RBM systems - good practices, performance, legislation and other design considerations
  
• To learn what criteria comprehensive systems must meet and why APAO systems exceed all these requirements. This will also include technical and specification support
  

This seminar analyses the different grades of use in accordance with BS 8102 - 2009 Protection of Structures Against Water from the Ground. Considers the various solutions of waterproofing both above and below ground available to the specifier.

• Special feature – Overview of updated BS 8102
  
• Satisfying the 3 grades of use in accordance with BS 8102 - 2009
• Protection of structures against water from the ground  
• Rising water tables   BS 8102 - 2009 standard overview    

Aimed as an overview for architects in particular but of equal interest to any specifier involved in the creation of designs and specifications involving new build and refurbished facades and floor joint sealants.

• Discover why sealants should be a key factor in specification
• To learn what you should expect from a quality supplier
