CPD and Training
Our dedicated team at Partel are passionate about innovation and sustainability and have vast expertise across all areas of engineering, architecture and building physics. Being one of the leading companies in the green building sector we wish to encourage and educate trade professionals in low energy building as well as promoting further growth in the move towards energy efficient smart building.
In addition to providing tailored technical advice, WUFI risk analysis and onsite inspections we have for the past 8 years provided a variety of CPD courses and seminars on the issue of green building practices.
If you are eager to upskill on the key issues, procedures, and application methods in the areas of airtightness, windtightness, ventilation and thermal bridging, these courses are available and open to all – architects, engineers, building consultants, tradesmen, installers and homeowners.
For further information please see below our training available.
BEST PRACTICE FOR AIR AND WINDTIGHT STRUCTURES
This RIBA Approved CPD focuses on the importance of air and wind tightness in low-energy building design. It discusses the importance of external and internal membranes, their sealing and highlights best practice on how to specify and install. It also focuses on the risks associated with airtight buildings and how best to overcome these.
Duration: 45 minutes presentation, plus a 10 minute for Q&A
By the end of the seminar you should have a greater understanding of:

METHODS AND APPLICATIONS TO IMPROVE AIR AND WIND TIGHTNESS, THERMAL BRIDGING
The cornerstone of any low energy build is making sure you get the airtightness right!
This presentation focuses on the importance of airtightness and windtightness in both new and retrofit building design. It is led by one of our Certified Passive House Designers and among other things; discusses the value behind making the right design choices to begin, choosing the correct products for the project brief as well as then crucially the correct installation and application on site.
