Let's discuss air & vapour control layers - whe what, the why & the when... When condensation occurs within a building’s structure, it may cause significant issues that prove costly to rectify. Air and Vapour Control Membranes (AVCL, Vapour Control Layers, VCLs) play a crucial role in limiting the passage of moisture and air into the fabric of a building – ensuring the wellbeing of the occupants and providing longevity to the structure. They also provide an important airtight layer within the construction element to eliminate heat loss through the building’s fabric. To find out more about AVCLs, why they are needed, and when to install them, check out illbruck UK's expert advice article: https://hubs.ly/Q02fpWpt0 #tremcocpg #trustinillbruck #avcl #vapourcontrollayer #condensation #constructionuk #constructionsolutions #buildingfabric #architects #specifiers

Join me this Wednesday, July 10 for Part 2 of the webinar series "2024 IBC: Dead, Live and Rain Loads." Part 2 of this 7-part series will provide information on the proper evaluation of structural loads per the 2024 International Building Code® (IBC®) and the IBC-referenced 2022 ASCE/SEI 7 Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures (ASCE 7-22). This presentation covers dead and live loads and methods for live load reduction. Also discussed are provisions for determining design rain loads for roofs. https://lnkd.in/eUTe-tzV

Virtual design and construction (#VDC) can be used more than just within the construction of the building. Let’s take a look at the case study where Flintco, LLC uses VDC to address safety concerns between the building construction activities and the adjacent high voltage power line. #VirtualDesignAndConstruction #InnovativeConstruction #ConstructionActivities #Orientation #Contractors #BuildingSafety #HighVoltagePowerLines

Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) has had a tough few years with so many manufacturers calling it a day - especially volumetric. At Futurebuild we presented our work for Architects Climate Action Network. The one slide which had the most photographs being taken was our 'Top Ten MMC Errors'. This is based on our own MMC experience at Perpendicular Architecture, as architects & consultants working for housing associations, local councils, main contractors, & SME developers. Our Top Ten list is in no particular order, however getting the first one right tends to resolve the others! Maybe you have your own 'Top Ten MMC Errors'? If so, please share. In the spirit of collaboration, the more we're able to share with each other what's gone wrong, the more chances we have to get it right next time. Eitherway, MMC across all categories is here to stay, and we're here to help.
