Panels and Profiles has just launched a new CPD seminar on best energy conservation design practice in industrial and commercial buildings.

“A guide to ADL2A: 2010 and the impact of Building Envelope systems” provides a detailed explanation of the new 2010 Edition of Approved Document L2A (Conservation of fuel and power in new buildings other than dwellings) to the Building Regulations 2010 (England & Wales).

Accredited by the Construction CPD Certification Service (CPDUK), the seminar demonstrates how to achieve compliance with ADL2A:2010. It examines the factors influencing the Simplified Building Energy Model (SBEM), using example buildings to show the effects of the new legislation.

The role of building control is also examined, along with an exploration of low carbon technologies. Time is also given to explain how to obtain energy performance certificates, plus a close look at the BRE Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM).

The seminar is available to all professional practices throughout the United Kingdom. Anyone wishing to hold a seminar on their premises should email mark.clemson@tatasteel.com or call 01244 892106
