SUMMARY:Sustainable timber specification
DESCRIPTION:The UK building industry consumes millions of tonnes of timber a year. Whilst in the past the sources of this timber were entirely unregulated\, today greater awareness of the significant environmental damage thoughtless timber specification can cause has led to the introduction of many different certification schemes – some good\, some not so good. \nThe speaker will demonstrate that experience has shown that just specifying ‘sustainable timber’ does not always lead to ‘sustainable timber’ being used. \nThe speaker is Charlie Law from PEFC\, who has over 30 year’s experience in the construction sector and extensive industry knowledge having worked for BAM\, Kier and Lendlease. \nHe is also Sustainability Director at Timber Development UK (TDUK) and a member of Grown in Britain Executive. \nThe session explains what schemes are available\, and where they can go wrong and explores ways of designing out the risk of unsustainable timber being used in the first place. \nWe will also look at the use of timber in cladding. With timber being an increasingly popular choice as a sustainable material cladding we’ll explore the specific pitfalls associated with use.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR - Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act
DESCRIPTION:Date: 24 April 2025 \nSpeaker: Richard Snape \nTime: 17:00-18:00 (with time for questions at the end) \nThe Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024 introduces significant reforms\, including banning new long residential leasehold houses (with exceptions)\, extending lease terms to 990 years\, and giving leaseholders more rights to enfranchise and challenge charges. Ground rent reforms and administration charges are capped or abolished in many cases\, with judicial reviews delaying some implementations. Commonhold reforms are proposed to make it the default for new flats\, and the Act also strengthens protections under the Building Safety Act 2022 and establishes redress schemes for both leaseholders and freeholders.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR - Historically accurate glazing with modern build values
DESCRIPTION:Date: 8 May 2025 \nSpeaker: Brian Scott\, HistoGlass \nTime: 17:00-18:00 (with time for questions at the end) \nThis CPD will explore different historic glazing types and which types were used in which era (to which vernacular it belongs). From there\, the presentation will demonstrate how historic glazing can be incorporated in modern systems to achieve both the correct historic look and feel as well as modern acoustic and thermal insulation values. By the end of the CPD you should have a greater understanding of: \n– How to identify historic glazing (which type it is and which era it belongs to) \n– How to specify the correct historic glass type in combination with either thin double glazing or laminated systems \n– How to identify which U and dB values are achievable for glazing in historic windows
