Beyond the Surface, Designing out Defects.

1 Formal CPD Point
Providing an in-depth exploration of the dynamic behaviour of building materials. Join us for this enriching session and enhance your design strategies with proven methods for improving construction quality. We look forward to your participation.

Content
Introduction to the behaviour of building materials as well as thermal movement and foundation properties, necessitating an understanding of these dynamics in design. Effective building façade design to integrate strategies for water shedding in a wholistic view of façade weatherproofing and waterproofing design.

Case studies and practical examples highlight effective detailing that mitigates common defects, offering insights for refining design approaches and achieving higher quality construction outcomes through lessons learned from previous projects.

Learning Outcomes
Understand inherent behaviour of standard building materials and expected movement including foundation movement. Understand façade weatherproofing design and water shedding. An appreciation of waterproofing details and waterproofing membrane technology. Examples on detailing to avoid defects.
