Building Systems Workshop
This workshop is aimed at people in the early stages of a project, who have yet to decide what building method they are using. One of the most important decisions you will make during your project is which building system to use, as this is used to construct the superstructure of the house. Several influencing factors will shape your decision-making, including your plot and priorities for your build. Using our own unique educational zones, and working with a selection of NSBRC exhibiting partners, we’ll explore the pros and cons of each system, including: Timber Frame, Masonry, Insulated Concrete Formwork, Passivhaus, Structural Insulated Panels and Log Homes.
Start creating your perfect home at The National Self Build & Renovation Show. With an unrivalled line up of exhibitors and experts on hand to share advice, this is a brilliant event if you are thinking about finding a plot and building a brand new home, renovating a tired property or even extending your current home.
Join us at the NSBRC for a dedicated Drop-in Clinic on Rainwater Harvesting & Water Conservation - a half-day event designed to help homeowners, self-builders, and renovators explore the benefits, systems, and savings of harvesting rainwater.
We’ll cover everything from heat pumps and solar panels to ventilation and building fabric's what’s new, what works and what are the practical issues you need to consider. This is your opportunity to get the facts straight from the experts.
