Learn how smart Thermal Bridging Solutions can
- Reduce heat loss and create a more energy efficient building
- Significantly reduce construction costs
- Help easily achieve compliance with Part L of the Building Regulations
- Help move towards Passive House and nZEB standards.
Our popular thermal bridging CPD course is now available via online video call, making it even easier for you to obtain CPD points whilst learning about the most effective way to combat heat loss through thermal bridging, or cold bridging.
With up to 35% of a building’s heat loss occurring through thermal bridges, it is essential to effectively deal with the issue using a fabric first approach in order to significantly improve the building’s thermal performance and achieve a much more energy efficient build.
With regulatory changes in Ireland, particularly the introduction of nZEB standards, and a society and an industry which increasingly demands more sustainable, energy efficient buildings, the effective elimination of thermal bridging is one of the simplest and most cost effective ways to deliver a superior performing building design.
This CPD course has been tailored to suit all construction professionals in Ireland, including Architects, Architectural Technologists, SAP Assessors, Designers, Engineers and Developers.
CPD course content:
- Thermal conductivity; thermal resistance and U-values
- What is a thermal bridge?
- Different types of thermal bridge
- Psi values and Y-factors
- Thermal bridging options in DEAP
- Solutions to thermal bridging using aircrete thermal blocks
