SUMMARY:BDQ Online CPD Masterclass with Stratco
DESCRIPTION:ALL THINGS MECHANICAL & SPRING CURVING: Design\, Specification & Installation \nOverviewJoin us for a technical CPD session presented by Cindy Lee from our Industry Partner Stratco\, exploring the principles\, processes\, and practical considerations of mechanical and spring curving in roofing\, cladding\, and flashings. \nThis session will provide a clear comparison between spring curving and mechanical curving systems\, outlining where each method is best applied and how early design decisions can influence constructability\, cost\, and visual outcomes. Attendees will gain insight into how curved elements are manufactured and detailed\, and how to clearly communicate curving requirements to builders and installers. \nThe presentation will also address common challenges associated with curving in plan\, the production of specialist flashings such as Pittsburgh seams\, and strategies to minimise budget overruns through accurate specification and design coordination. \nLearning OutcomesBy the end of this session\, participants will:– Understand the key differences\, advantages\, and limitations of mechanical curving versus spring curving for roofing\, cladding\, and flashings.– Identify the technical and design complexities associated with curving in plan and how these impact fabrication and installation.– Gain an overview of the manufacturing process for Pittsburgh seam flashings and other curved elements.– Evaluate the cost\, design\, and specification considerations required to deliver curved forms efficiently and transparently to builders and installers.
