A member of the RIBA CPD Provider Network, Hanson Formpave, a
leading manufacturer of concrete paving products has extended its
expertise and knowledge to provide CPD seminars, run by the
dedicated and experienced Hanson Formpave specification team.
Permeable Paving as a Storm Water Source Control System
Just 40 minutes in duration, the CPD is aimed directly at architects
and engineers across the UK. As a market leader in permeable paving,
and with over 15 years of product research and development, Hanson
Formpave is perfectly placed to offer information on storm water
source control systems, having successfully completed projects with
councils, local Government, Welsh Assembly Government and house
builders, both nationally and internationally. In recent years the
company’s use and integration of Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP)
technology within its permeable paving systems signifies the vast
potential of this future-proof solution.
Supported by technical brochures, case studies and with the offer of
a free site-specific design service, the CPD presentation addresses
the problems associated with traditional methods of storm water
drainage. It also includes the different types of sustainable urban
drainage systems (SUDS) on the market, as well as the types of
permeable paving and storm water source control systems available,
plus the advantages and disadvantages associated with permeable
paving. Finally the CPD concludes with a question and answer
session, after details on maintenance and performance issues
relating to permeable paving.
When commenting on the benefit of the Hanson Formpave CPD seminar,
Andrew Heard, director of CASE Consultants, a civil and structural
engineers based in Torquay, said: “In the last five years we have
hosted a number of Hanson Formpave CPD events, delivered in our
office, at our convenience; all have been well received by our
delegates. The initial presentation explained, in detail, the
history and principles of operation of permeable paving. Subsequent
events have outlined the changes that have developed since 2006.”
“The CPD events have allowed our team and external partners, such as
local architects, to keep up-to-date with Hanson Formpave’s
technical changes. We have utilised this knowledge to inform our
highway layouts, particularly with regard to demonstrating
compliance with the Code for Sustainable Homes.”
