Tiling product company BAL has revised three of its RIBA-approved tiling CPDs.

Floor Tiling Solutions for the Modern Build will assist with the successful specification and installation of all types of tile to common constructional backgrounds. It has four, interchangeable modules that identify potential costly problems, consider how they can arise, offer practical advice on preventative measures and identify the correct BAL materials to use. It highlights British and European standards, health & safety issues and identifies the different types of adhesives, grout and preparation technology available.

Tiling Solutions for Heavily Trafficked Areas provides guidance on relevant codes of practice and explains new ceramic tile adhesive technology and EN classifications, as well as providing further guidance on problem solving and how to avoid potentially costly failures.

Tiling Solutions for Leisure Centres looks at the design process for the successful specification and installation of ceramic, porcelain and natural stone tiling for leisure environments, including swimming pools.

Paul Telfer, BAL's Head of Specifications, says: “The newly revised RIBA-approved CPDs help bring architects and specifiers up-to-date with the latest technical information and standards to ensure that they specify the correct products for their tiling installations – whether these are large commercial or small domestic projects.

 “Lasting no more than 45minutes, each CPD has been created with architects in mind and allows plenty of time for questions.”
