YDBC Building Control’s Post

Recent Project: Successfully Completed🏗️ We’re excited to announce the completion of a recent project in Harrogate, for a brand-new shopfront and emergency exit doors. It’s been a rewarding experience contributing to the safety and aesthetics of the space. Thank you to everyone involved in making this project a success! #harrogate #alterations #buildingcontrolapprover #projectsuccess #construction

We’re excited to announce that we are now a Registered Building Control Approver (RBCA), which enables us to maintain our current projects while taking on new commissions across all sectors. To accommodate this growth, we’re actively expanding our team by welcoming new surveyors, with plans to significantly increase our size over the next three months. Our Registered Building Inspectors, certified from Class 2 to Class 4 Technical Managers, are ready to support new instructions across all sectors. As some Building Control Bodies may be scaling back their services, we are moving in the opposite direction - doubling our team size in the next 3 months and welcoming new clients, all while continuing to support our valued existing customer base. #buildingcontrol #registeredbuildingcontrolapprover #rbca #technicalmanagers #buildingsafetyact #buildingregulations #constructionindustry #growth

We are thrilled to announce our involvement in the conversion of the upper floors of a Harrogate town centre building into a 17-bed Aparthotel.

Our team is proud to be appointed to this project, where we will be delivering the Building Control, alongside our sister company delivering the SAP/EPC, SBEM/EPC, and Water Calculations. We look forward to seeing this project come to life! 🏗️✨ #buildingcontrol #architecture #construction #harrogate #buildingcompliance

Leeds CPD Event Recap: Highlights and Key Insights Joe delivered an engaging session on Psi Values and the Future Homes Standard. If you missed Joe's session or need a refresher, drop us a message to re-listen to this section! Key Points from Joe's Psi Values Discussion: ➡️Proving Compliance with Psi Values: Joe explained the critical role of accurately calculated Psi Values in proving compliance with building standards. ➡️New Building Regulations: With the new building regulations, it is now unlikely to pass using default values anymore. Joe emphasised the importance and effectiveness of having Psi Values calculated, specifically for your build. ➡️Benefits of Calculating Psi Values: As Joe said, "If you come to us and we can get those calculated, you are going to be saving yourself essentially time and money by not having to over insulate a wall or insulate a roof just because of how much better the Psi Value could be." ➡️Calculation Process: To calculate the Psi Value, we create a 2D/3D model of the junction and then insert the thermal conductivity each of the fabric conductivities. The software then calculates the Psi and fRsi Value, a process similar to calculating a U-value, which more people are familiar with. Thank you again to everyone who attended and contributed to making this event a success! Keep an eye out for more key highlights from our event, which are crucial following the new building regulation changes across the construction industry. #psivalues #constructionindustry #cpdevent #developers #architects #futurehomesstandard #uvalues #compliance
