RIBA approve Dow roof insulation CPD

The Royal Institute of British Architects, RIBA, has approved a new Continuing Professional Development (CPD) online module from STYROFOAM manufacturer Dow Building Solutions called “Specifying insulation for inverted flat roofing”. 

The RIBA Online CPD offers information on extruded polystyrene products as an insulation choice for inverted flat roofs and gives key pointers to bear in mind when reviewing U-value calculations and specifying insulation material for such applications.

“Specifying insulation for inverted flat roofing” is available to view online at http://www.ribacpd.com/dow-building-solutions/02540/overview/ and is part of the RIBA Core Curriculum.  Chartered RIBA members are obliged to undertake a minimum of 20 of their yearly 35 hours CPD from this curriculum, with two hours of CPD time in each of ten key topics.

The new Dow Building Solutions CPD sits within the “Designing and building it” section, and, because it is RIBA certified, is worth double points.  The CPD takes around 30 minutes to complete and comes with voiceover and questionnaire. Certificates of completion are sent via email to delegates who successfully complete the module and questionnaire.
