Reducing Operational Carbon – Using window and door specification to build for efficiency

In this course, architects will learn about innovations in windows and doors systems in order to design, build, and construct homes that meet the new 7-star energy-efficiency provisions. The course will cover vital elements such as climate zones, U Values ad solar heat gain coefficients, enabling architects to specify the right windows and doors to maximise natural light and the views.

Sustainability and Innovation in Surfaces

The built environment produces a third of the world’s waste. Every year about 100 billion tonnes of raw materials are extracted for use across the buildings and construction sector. Today, it is possible to create products that have a positive impact on the world around us. More sustainable and carbon neutral, with higher percentages of recycled materials and a longer life cycle. Designing for a sustainable future requires architects, designers, and specifiers to look at materials from a more holistic perspective.

Sustainable concrete

Architects can reduce the embodied carbon of a building by specifying lower carbon construction materials. Concrete represents a significant portion of the embodied carbon of a building. This one hour course explains why concrete has a high embodied carbon content and how it can be reduced without compromising the project schedule or the engineering properties of the concrete.
