Insulation Systems

This CPD will investigate the challenges of air leakage in modular construction and cover adjacent issues of moisture control and hygrothermal assessment, and the implications of air leakage strategies on both energy efficiency, and ‘as designed’ vs ‘as-built’ performance. The A. Proctor Group have worked with many offsite companies all over the world and will demonstrate case studies of successful projects. The presentation also covers fire spread and fire protection methods in façade construction, with a focus on the use of intumescent vapour permeable membranes.
