The films are aimed at architects (including architecture students) and other construction professionals who have a key role in creating safe, sustainable and buildable designs. The series is not-for-profit and can be viewed FREE here.

These films are in a set of 3 which cover the 2012 Construction Client Commitments. They are the 'must view' for all clients and are produced to a high quality low purchase cost formulae. This is a much needed 'easy access' to top relevant information for all clients public and private, that will fast track them to: how to achieve best value in procurement, low carbon and cost savings, and a safe project where people are respected.

Ten Top Tips for Design Health and Safety

As RIBA prepare their next CPD programme, Paul Clark of Provelio has worked with HSE and CESW to prepare the training content and put together a ‘Ten Tips for CDM’ from a designer’s perspective.

Tom Harper says: "Whilst we have produced a great set of DVDs for designers which are RIBA CPD approved (see below for more details),  we felt that there was also room for a Ten Point Guide - anything that makes this subject easier to grasp has got to be a step forward. This short guide will be very helpful."

The Ten tips for CDM are available for download from the RIBA website. (724KB)
