RIBA CPD Showcase

Façades

The following CPD materials have been assessed and approved by the RIBA.
Seminar, by Thomann-Hanry®
This seminar aims to help specifiers to explore alternatives to traditional façade cleaning systems, understand their features and methodology, and consider their respective advantages and applications.

Thomann-Hanry® cleans the façades of commercial and historic buildings using a dry and non-abrasive system that operates entirely without scaffold or abseil. With no scaffold and no water run-off, projects are completed fast and without disruption to a building’s occupants, visitors or customers.

Approximate duration excluding time for questions/answers: 45 minutes
Seminar, by Sorba UK Ltd
This seminar sets out to advise specifiers of the design parameters, materials and applications of metal rainscreen façade solutions, primarily in an external environment. It is recognised that the target audience is as diverse as the architectural industry itself, therefore the producer has taken trouble to ensure that it addresses those issues that crop up most often in project discussions and enquiries.

SORBA UK is a cladding/building and envelope sub-contractor with vast supply chain capabilities. It specialises in the design, manufacture and supply of challenging bespoke façades in stainless steel, aluminium, composite materials, GRP, GRC, vitreous enamel, glass and its derivatives. The company offers turnkey solutions, covering all internal/external requirements, utilising the latest in 3D software.

Approximate duration excluding time for questions/answers: 40 minutes

It covers the design freedom, safety, and ease of use aspects of the board material, as well its unique properties. It is a must for architects and specifiers who want to broaden their design possibilities.
