The construction of Scotland's major new air traffic control facility has involved metal-framed fenestration specialist Fendor Limited in providing high-performance screens and doors.
Managing Director Chris Duffy, comments: "We have had a fantastic reaction from people so far.
Architects like to incorporate light and air and vision into their designs, with glass being the ideal material.
Unfortunately when it comes down to security, too often they have had to employ bars, or solid steel; but what we are doing is enabling them to use glass as a pure medium thanks to our latest advancements on interlayer technology and framing systems." Offering one hour's CPD time under the accreditation of the CPD Providers Network, the seminars are mainly being delivered during lunch breaks at the consultants' own offices.
This ensures specifiers are able to keep themselves up to date with the minimum of time loss and travelling.
Amongst the well known practices to have benefited from the FendorHansen seminar so far are WS Atkins, Brady Molyneaux, Seymour Harris and various offices of the Keppie design consultancy, as well as the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.
