RIBA CPD Showcase

Windows and rooflights

The interplay between light and dark, and sun and shade, are as much a part of building design as the interaction between bricks, wood and steel. Here are five seminars from Providers whose passion burns as brightly as the daylight their designs let in.
This CPD seminar provides an insight into building low energy and PassivHaus standard properties. It begins with background information on Internorm, followed by a good explanation as to what PassivHaus is and the key principles behind it. The presentation then provides a sound explanation on the role windows and doors play in gaining PassivHaus, followed by some recent examples that have utilised Internorm products to achieve this extremely high level of efficiency. Featuring a wealth of data and illustration, attendees will gain a thorough understanding of the standard.

For over 80 years Internorm has been the Austrian market leader in the manufacture of UPVC and UPVC/aluminium windows, timber/aluminium windows, composite windows, house entrance doors, window shutters and insulating glass. In addition to a comprehensive range of products and trend-setting designs, Internorm represents the highest competency in energy efficiency, with its high thermal insulation products. It is the only window brand in Europe with 9 Passivhaus certificates.
