Presented at the Refuel CPD Stage of ArchiBuild Expo 2023: In this session, learn how to investigate, evaluate and specify lightweight acoustic ceiling systems based upon an understanding of technical performance and the requirements of building standards with Senior Acoustician, Peter Pirozek of Knauf.
Presented at the Refuel CPD Stage of ArchiBuild Expo 2023: Join Aidan Mullan, Sustainability Manager of Interface Australia, for an informative session that covers important topics such as: how to use available measurement tools to identify opportunities for upfront emissions reduction, selection of innovative low carbon materials, circular design and when to use carbon offsets […]
Dr. Mark Dewsbury of UTAS and Dr. Steve Watson of RED Sustainability will deliver a 5 session-intensive Masterclass series to build on the existing knowledge base of Architects, relating to the complications and solutions for preventing condensation in the Tasmanian context while improving the quality and performance of buildings. The first of the series will […]
Offering a range of inspirational speakers including keynote addresses from Kerstin Thompson and featuring 2014 Institute Gold Medallist Adrian Welke, our inaugural Regional Symposium is an event not to be missed.
This in person event explores a range of design considerations to achieve optimum results with ISP including structural, thermal weatherability and fire properties. It will discuss the differences between ISP and ACP, the properties of different ISP core types and how ISP complies with Australian Standards.
There are many often competing factors to consider when choosing a roof system: structural requirement, fire standards, weatherability and thermal performance. This seminar will provide you with technical understanding to assist you in finding the best product solution required in today’s construction projects. The presentation will also assist in understanding the major issues that arise […]
When it comes to design and construction in today’s world there are many options to consider and, in this seminar, participants will expand their understanding on Insulated Sandwich Panel (ISP), how the manufacturing processes differ and how this in turn results in different properties for each panel type. This presentation will identify the key quality […]

We are already glimpsing the kinds of impending climate chaos that will result from a heating world as the 1.50C Paris barrier is already being broken. The two great challenges of our age are to a) reduce emissions from buildings and b) reinforce buildings to withstand more extreme weather. Historic efforts to increase the Energy Efficiency of building stocks […]
The Australian Institute of Architects acknowledges First Nations peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the lands, waters, and skies of the continent now called Australia.
We express our gratitude to their Elders and Knowledge Holders whose wisdom, actions and knowledge have kept culture alive.
We recognise First Nations peoples as the first architects and builders. We appreciate their continuing work on Country from pre-invasion times to contemporary First Nations architects, and respect their rights to continue to care for Country.
