EVENT | CPD Webinar Series 2024

Posted on by Siobhan Martin

We’re excited to announce the dates for our CPD Webinar Series for 2024. This series includes both our current CPDs: Specifying Sustainability and Achieving Intricate Brick Features.

The first CPD of the series, Specifying Sustainability, will be hosted on Thursday 14th March (12-12:30 pm) by our Specification Executive, Jemma Ison. Jemma will explore how offsite construction and conscious material selection can promote a circular economy. During the 30-minute webinar, she will delve deep into the global challenge and the need to decarbonise our sector, awareness of the sustainable benefits of offsite construction solutions, sustainable material selection to promote a circular economy, and how the Keystone Group is proactively delivering Net Zero applications.

The second CPD of the series, Achieving Intricate Brick Features, will be launching on Thursday 22nd March (12-1pm). The 60-minute webinar will explore topics such as bespoke brick slip solutions that comply with Document B: Fire Safety, traditional methods of forming brick soffits versus new technologies, why material selection is limited to stainless steel for masonry support systems, and levels of adjustability in the different masonry support systems to accommodate site tolerances.

These two CPD topics will be available monthly throughout 2024.

Our Specification Executive and Keystone Group Sustainability Manager Jemma Ison commented: “IG Masonry Support understands how important it is for architects, specifiers, and engineers to stay up-to-date on the latest construction trends and how they can help to enhance future projects. We understand that work time is precious and so is continuous professional development therefore we feel that short, concise webinar sessions will support this development in the most effective and time-conscious way.”
