In a time of an ever-growing climate crisis, soaring heating costs, more stringent energy efficiency regulations secondary glazing has never been more relevant. It is being used more and more frequently to insulate existing buildings and is by far the best way of providing noise insulation. Secondary glazing installation is a more sustainable option than replacement of primary windows. The embodied carbon in the existing windows is retained and there is no carbon cost associated with removing and sorting materials for recycling or landfill. This RIBA approved CPD seminar will leave those attending, confident in the ability to create a good specification when detailing secondary glazing into a project; to raise thermal efficiency, provide acoustic insulation or additional security in traditional, listed or new buildings. Testing standards and performance levels which can be achieved will be covered, as well as the more technical aspects such as fixing details and other design considerations.
High performance sound insulation covering the systems that are typically required for box-in-box systems.
Areas covered:
Principles of box-in-box acoustic isolation systems
Lightweight solutions for refurbishment projects
Farrat’s commitment to sustainability
Being able to find coatings that last, provide protection and solve problems in the built environment is always a challenge. With Owatrol solutions we will explore these scenarios and provide solutions that are tailored to both new buildings and the renovation of older ones. Problems such as how to maintain exterior masonry substrates; How to make the coating last? Paints that work without stabilising solutions, saving time and money. Exterior wood protection that not only decorates, but protects the timber; How to get coatings to last when others are failing? At Owatrol we pride ourselves on providing coatings that solve these and many other problems whilst delivering solutions that other coating manufacturers are not able to provide. With Eco-Friendly products throughout our range of solutions, we are at the forefront of today’s coatings technologies.
This CPD Presentation will show you where: Structural liners save you money; Structural liners return assets to full capacity quicker; Structural liners reduce environmental impact; Structural liners increase life expectancy.
The importance of heat retention goes beyond energy efficiency. Compare the performance and cost of modern insulation solutions and how simple and effective it is to ‘change the way you insulate’.
