Archi Team is organising their inaugural workshop on regulations and the newly updated National Construction Code later this month in Melbourne.

The half-day CPD workshop on ‘Regulations’ will be split into two sessions with participants also getting a chance to network with peers over lunch. The workshop will begin with a talk on the National Construction Code: Prescriptive Vs Performance. Attendees will be divided into smaller groups to take a closer look at specific areas of regulations.

The second session of the workshop will showcase architects achieving inspired design results by integrating considered responses to regulations.
