FDS Consult present a CPD seminar not to miss:

Free CPD – Fire Safety Design in Commercial Buildings

Learn about the applications and benefits of fire engineering and achieving regulations compliancy within commercial office, retail and warehouse buildings at the next FDS Consult CPD Seminar.

The principles of fire engineering will be covered in-depth as the value of good fire safety design is not just about protecting life, minimising damage, and cost savings in terms of the systems required, but can also result in maximising space and better design flexibility.

The CPD seminar is aimed at Architects, M&E Consultants, Contractors and Developers and will feature case study examples to identify value engineering solutions that can achieve building regulations approvals.

It will also include a presentation on the RRO (Regulatory Reform Order) and the building life cycle covering key aspects such as legislative changes, and fire design in relation to Fire Brigade standards and practices.

All these benefits and more will be covered at the event being held on 14th March at the Building Centre in Central London.

Date: Thursday 14th March 2013
Time: 9.00am to 1.00pm
