Safeguard Europe is offering Buildingtalk readers two complimentary lunchtime CPD webinars designed to sharpen your moisture management skill set. Next week on Tuesday, join Safefguard’s accessible introduction to waterproofing basements. Then, in May, discover how you can use the latest modelling software to assess the thermal efficiency and risk of mould for any type of building.
Register now at the links below to secure your place at each webinar. All webinars are delivered via Google Meet. Each one hour presentation concludes with a short Q&A session from a qualified in-house expert.
Growing demand for habitable basements makes reliable waterproofing essential. Get everything you need to know to start your basement journey here. This webinar has Royal Institute of Architects approval and counts towards chartered members’ CPD obligations. After the presentation, a slimdown version of the presentation will be made available. The host will be Damian Wallis, CSSW.

– The main guidance documents for basement waterproofing.
– Learn how to get it right by learning from the mistakes made in the last 30 years of structural waterproofing.
– How to meet guidance requirements with a compliant waterproofing system.
– How to minimise the risk of failure by working with design consultants and specialist contractors.
Using WUFI hygrothermal modelling, this webinar demonstrates how to forecast moisture behaviour on a range of wall build‑ups and how to craft a suitable retrofit insulation strategy. Hosted by Molly Edmondson and Louis Calcutt, Research & Development scientists.
In this session:
– The science behind WUFI modelling software.
– Predicting thermal performance on a variety of wall build-ups with varied levels of moisture content.
– Using the VTT model to predict mould risk.
– The methods and materials to help prevent mould and heat loss.
