Fundamentals of Polycarbonate Building Materials and Compliance Issues

Polycarbonate is a high-performance building material, but its successful application depends on a clear understanding of its properties, system performance, and regulatory requirements.

This course provides architects and building professionals with an introduction to polycarbonate as a building material, including product types, material behaviour, and key performance characteristics.

It also outlines relevant National Construction Code compliance pathways, alongside sustainability and lifecycle considerations, equipping participants to confidently specify and apply polycarbonate systems for compliant, durable, and high-performing architectural outcomes.

Designing For the Australian Climate Using Multicell Polycarbonate​

Designing for Australia’s harsh and varied climate requires more than material selection—it demands an understanding of how materials perform under real environmental conditions.

This CPD provides architects and building professionals with insight into how multicell polycarbonate can be effectively specified and detailed to respond to climate, improve thermal performance, manage UV exposure, and enhance daylighting.

It equips participants with the knowledge to design resilient, energy-efficient, and compliant buildings by addressing key factors such as orientation, thermal movement, moisture control, and total system performance.

Facades of the Future: Looking Beyond Compliance, Prioritising Best Practices and Sustainable Design

In this CPD presentation, we look at the state of the façade market – where we have come from and where we are today. We explore Australian and global fire testing methods, their role in evaluating façade designs and systems, and discuss how looking beyond compliance is critical when designing safe buildings and futureproofing your specifications. With the increase of extreme weather conditions and climate change, we also investigate weatherability performance testing methods for common weather events such as hailstorms and severe wind.
