RIBA CPD

Are you an architect, specifier or designer specifying balustrades or handrails? If so, Q-railing would like to offer your practice a RIBA-certified CPD seminar, at no cost and with no obligation. Learn about the UK standards and regulations that apply in different circumstances. For your convenience, the session will take place at your own premises or virtually via MS Teams.

What’s in it for you:

• Discover the types of frameless glazed balustrade systems available
• Review how they are fixed and why the substrate affects this
• Load requirements and how this moulds specification
• Key regulations and how they influence the spec for glazed balustrade
• Evaluate different types of glass and their influence on loadings and safety – including designing out “known risks” for CDM regulations
• Discuss changes to Approved Document B – fire safety
• Cap rail or handrail? Why and how!
• Material selection – Stainless steel and aluminium, their long term maintenance and sustainability
• Case studies – Real life projects, and how the above affected their design and realisation

Simply fill out the form below to let us know you would like to book a CPD seminar.
We will contact you to discuss any details and make further arrangements.
