Our most recent Supply Chain Update was released this month. While it was welcome news to hear 80% of survey respondents report a resolution to supply chain issues, our findings have confirmed two new challenges set to test building product suppliers into 2024.

In a membrane roof design, the overflow should have the same cross-sectional capacity as the primary outlet and give an early conspicuous warning to the building occupier that maintenance is required. But what about the weeping overflow, or one that activates prematurely?

This month we delve into code completion certificate data with BRANZ Economist, Matt Curtis.

This month I discuss multi-storey construction + we're giving you another chance to WIN with the Medium Quick-Fire Quiz.

With at least five fatalities, the fire at Loafers Lodge puts the spotlight on the insufficient fire safety systems in our existing building stock. The unfortunate event has resurfaced a systemic problem: Insufficient passive fire protection in older, high occupancy buildings. In this article we want to discuss how a liquid passive fire system, that offers an immediate solution for upgrading buildings can also feed into a long-term solution, adding to resolve the underlying systemic issue.

A look at the different types of producers statements and how these relate to belowground waterproofing.

With surfaces you touch a lot, sensory feel can not only make the surface feel better but also look better.

A look at the purposes and four key principles of passive fire protection to effectively contain a fire at its source and prevent the spread of flames and smoke throughout a building, allowing occupants to escape safely.

For housing design and construction is there such a strong link between passive thermal performance, (before heating & cooling appliances are activated), and the embodied carbon content of the dwelling so that these two important design objectives must be locked together in a single analysis?

When selecting passive fire and drainage systems, early engagement to select the right solution can have a profound effect.
