CEW: Weekly Event Update
|
Every week CEW holds seminars, workshops and gives industry stakeholders the chance to network, showcase and talk best practice – but works best for you – read on and find out: Last week CEW held the second in a series of sessions educating Welsh construction professionals about regulations around sprinkler systems: view here. This was very popular and we will be running two further sprinkler events in Cardiff in November, register your interest here. The workshop on sprinklers advised delegates on how to meet the new regulations from 1st January 2016, when it will be a legal requirement in Wales for all new residential properties to have sprinkler systems installed (it is already a requirement for ‘high risk’ properties such as care homes). There is little detailed technical awareness in the industry of what this means in terms of design and implementation for developers, designers and consultants both during design and the delivery of the homes on site. This training seminar and two more in November recognises the need to the construction industry in Wales to be better equipped to address the imminent legal requirement for sprinklers in all new residential properties. A ‘summary sheet’ will be available on the day to highlight the core issues and steps that developers and design teams need to be aware of. Feedback for the event: I have a better understanding after today, Very informative, enlightening of forthcoming law, very beneficial. To view our upcoming events visit our website.
