We’re pleased to offer a dedicated CPD session covering best practice in construction sealing and airtightness, with particular emphasis on airtightness, windtightness and weatherproof detailing at critical connections and junctions within the building envelope.
The session is designed to help construction professionals understand how sealing strategies, material selection and installation detailing can influence the performance of the completed building.
Who is the CPD for?
The session is particularly relevant for professionals involved in the design, specification and delivery of high-performance and low-energy buildings, including:
- Architects
- Specifiers
- Site managers
- Contractors and installers
- Retrofit professionals
What does the airtightness CPD cover?
The CPD provides practical guidance on the principles behind effective construction sealing and the importance of maintaining continuity across the building envelope.
Topics include airtightness, windtightness and weather protection, together with the detailing of critical connections and junctions where gaps in the building envelope can affect overall performance.
The aim is to provide practical knowledge that can be applied during design, specification and installation, helping project teams develop more robust approaches to building-envelope detailing.
Flexible CPD delivery
To make the session accessible to different teams and organisations, the CPD can be delivered:
- Live online via Teams or Zoom
- In person at your premises
- In person at the Lynvale facility
The CPD is also available to members of The Retrofit Academy.
Why attend?
Achieving the required levels of airtightness and weather protection depends on more than selecting an individual product. Project teams need to understand how materials connect across junctions, interfaces and penetrations to create continuity throughout the building envelope.
The CPD provides practical guidance on airtightness and weatherproof detailing to help construction professionals understand the principles required to meet Building Regulations and recognised low-energy building standards, including EnerPHit requirements where applicable.
By improving understanding at design, specification and installation stages, the session aims to help close the gap between required building performance and what is ultimately delivered on site.
