Key Focus Areas for our CPD Courses
The CPD courses we designed enhances the skills and knowledge of engineers, consultants and specifiers in number of key areas. Below are some of those topics that our courses will focus on:
- Water Tank Regulations – we offer updated information on regional and international regulations governing water storage tanks. This helps engineers, consultants and specifiers to stay complaint and contribute to the safety and efficiency of water storage tanks. The different regulations for One Piece, Sectional and Sprinkler Tanks are discussed. Having an understanding of the regulations enables a more informed decision on the water storage solution to go for.
- Water Tank Sizing – the sizing of water tanks can be a stumbling block in the specification process of projects. Our course will equip consultants, specifiers and engineers with the knowledge to accurately size water tanks. A better understanding of the differences between nominal, actual and actual useable capacities is essential in coming up with the right water tank for a customer’s needs.
- Spaces and Bases – 1 in 5 sectional tank installations do not go ahead on the planned installation date because of incorrectly constructed bases. Our Space and Bases course explores the issues when tank supports are not constructed properly and how to accurately specify the right base support required for each tank type. Registering for the course will help reduce errors during the tank specification and installation process.
- Tank Design – water damage due to incorrectly piped warning pipes and overflows and poor plantroom drainage, can lead to thousands of pounds in damages therefore there needs to be an improved understanding of the best practices to follow. Where the water storage tank is located within the building is another important consideration because the plantroom should be designed to handle a failure in the pipework. This is explained in depth in our course.
- Tank Types – different water tanks serve different purposes. Depending on the use whether it is for domestic or commercial purposes the chosen tank will reflect that. Our CPD course explains all there is to know about sectional tanks, their components and the different types of sectional tanks available. This knowledge will help engineers, contractors and specifiers understand the best practices required for building clearances and future maintenance.
