Bitesize CPD - Roof Hatches - How To Specify Roof Access
CPD from Surespan Limited
Welcome to the first of its kind, Bitesize CPD.

A short pre-recorded video which highlights what options should be considered when specifying roof hatches and ladders. Covering in depth the available operation methods, locking, finishes, safety considerations and much more making it easier for you to specify a working solution.

The roof hatch is not just a square box on the roof. You need to consider what is the minimum size you can specify for safe use, how will it safely be operated by an end user and how they will access it? Is it accessed via a retractable ladder or fixed vertical ladder, and what are they accessing for? What restrictions do you have on site and how can you best utilise the space provided ensuring safe means of access?

All these questions will be answered and more.

Open, connected systems - lighting controls CPD
CPD from Delmatic
Open systems share hardware and knowledge and achieve substantial savings in capital cost as well as big operational savings over the life of a building. However, all too often, buildings are equipped with stand-alone, proprietary systems that tie clients into expensive and restrictive support from one vendor and limit potential for integration. By contrast, open, interoperable systems optimise efficiency by pooling key data and sharing hardware, and offer enhanced operation at competitive cost.This seminar looks at open protocols and connected lighting control systems, the advantages of open technologies to consultants and clients, the technical benefits, capital cost and operational cost savings. The seminar includes recommendations and design approaches for typical types of projects, and a sequence of flowcharts and animated schematics guides delegates through the integration process.For more information or to book an event e-mail [email protected]
