This CPD presents a comprehensive guide to the key construction, performance, safety and aesthetic factors that should be considered when specifying Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) for a commercial interior project. It goes on to provide examples of how LVT can be used for a range of different commercial environments. By the end of the presentation you should have a greater understanding of: - What LVT is and how it compares to other hard and resilient flooring products - The important performance, safety and design aspects to be aware of when specifying LVT - How LVT products are tested for performance and safety, and how to interpret the technical specification data - How LVT can best be used in a commercial environment This CPD can be delivered to you live and remotely.

By providing qualified data and real-world examples, this CPD will help architects and designers develop a better understanding of how specifying materials for the built environment impacts climate change. It goes on to provide valuable insights for adopting positive specification practices that minimise carbon emission and the impact on our world for the future.

This seminar provides design considerations when specifying floor coverings for neuro-inclusive work environments. The presentation starts by explaining what neurodiversity means and the challenges and opportunities neurodivergent employees present for the workplace. It goes on to review the legislation relating to neuro-inclusive design and key sensitivities that architects and designers need to be aware of when designing and specifying floor coverings for a neurodivergent workforce. With example installations, the seminar illustrates how floor coverings can best support the design of neuro-inclusive workspaces. By the end of this CPD delegates should: 1. Understand what neurodiversity means and why it matters for designing workplaces. 2. Know the relevant standards and legislation relating to the design of neuro-inclusive interiors. 3. Be aware of the factors that should be considered when specifying floor covering products for a neurodiverse workforce. 4. Know how the floor plane can best be used as part of a neuro-inclusive interior. 5. Have a better understanding of how thoughtful design can improve the comfort, focus and efficiency of neurodivergent employees.

This seminar examines the role and importance of entrance flooring systems, considering regulatory, safety, health, well-being and financial factors. It goes on to explain how effective systems work, explores the various entrance flooring forms and materials available and how they should be used. The presentation concludes by reviewing some common causes of entrance flooring failures and provides some examples of effective entrance systems. By the end of the CPD you should have a greater understanding of: - The importance of entrance flooring systems to a building’s statutory and regulatory compliance, its safety, cleanliness, and to the health and well-being of its occupants - The financial impact that effective entrance flooring can have on the operation of a building - The various types of entrance flooring products available, how they work and strategic considerations for their specification - How to avoid entrance flooring system failures - How to specify an effective entrance flooring system for your next project This CPD can be delivered to you live and remotely.

"This CPD explores the importance of a building’s acoustics on the well-being and productivity of people in the workplace and in education. Topics covered include factors to be considered whilst evaluating floor coverings for acoustic performance, measuring sound in relation to floor coverings, how particular floor coverings can positively contribute to a building’s acoustics, and how floor coverings are measured and certified by the WELL v2 Building Standard for their acoustic impact on well-being. By the end of the CPD you should have a greater understanding of: -The negative impact that high ambient sound levels can have on well-being and productivity in the workplace and in education

Health and well-being is becoming an increasingly important consideration for architects when designing new spaces. This seminar explores this theme and the significant role that the WELL Building Standard is playing in progressing health and well-being for the built environment. Delegates will learn about the Version 2 enhancements of the Standard and about the impact floor covering can have for projects aiming to achieve the WELL v2 Standard. By the end of the CPD you should have a greater understanding of: - The key reasons for designing spaces with a primary focus on human health and well-being - The WELL Building Standard and the key features and ways to certify your next project - How the WELL Living Lab is contributing to future WELL Building Standard features - Ways that floor covering can contribute to the WELL Building Standard and how to design spaces with a focus on human health and well-being
