December's issue of RIBA CPD Showcase

The theme of December’s RIBA CPD Showcase is finishes - popularly portrayed as a final flourish, they are in fact integral to how we perceive and interact with buildings. Whether their primary function is protective, decorative or practical, finishes can be the vital component that elevates an ordinary building into something extraordinary.

This month’s issue also features CPD materials covering core curriculum topics ‘design, construction and technology’ and ‘legal, regulatory and statutory compliance.’ 

The latest CPD section includes online learning and seminars such as ‘Access Panels and Hatches’ by Rapid Access Ltd, ‘Creating a healthy, happy workspace’ by BRITA Vivreau Ltd, ‘Specifying curtain walling’ by Schueco UK Ltd and ‘Understanding Colour’ by Johnstone's Trade Paints.

• ‘Textured Brickwork’ by Vandersanden Brick
•  'Adaptive Smart Glass’ by eLstar Dynamics B.V.
• ‘Hardwood veneers for interior panelling and furniture’ by Schotten & Hansen
