Studio Partington at Futurebuild 2023!

From the 7th to the 9th of March, Futurebuild will be holding an exhibition which will bring together the entire construction supply chain to showcase, debate and understand the advancements in sustainable construction and the emerging technologies that will make net zero possible.

As part of this, on the 8th March, Studio Partington’s Colin Davis, alongside Dr Tony Hopkin, Colum McCague, Patrick Lewis and Steve Callow will look at how detailed design and specification continue to evolve to meet building regulations and the carbon reduction requirements of the Future Homes Standard 2025.

Chaired by The Concrete Centre’s Elaine Toogood, the panel of speakers take a look at some of the innovative products and construction techniques available to deliver greater energy efficiency and low embodied and whole life carbon performance.

Colin will introduce a new online tool, developed to help housing projects meet and exceed Building Regulations and provide improved energy efficiency. This new resource provides hundreds of detailed construction drawings using masonry, each variation provided with pre-calculated thermal bridging (PSI) values.
