New Technical Committee on 3D Volumetric Building Systems
New NSAI Technical Committee on 3D Volumetric Building Systems
Ireland's construction sector is entering a new phase in the adoption of innovative construction methods including Modern Methods of Construction (MMC). 3D volumetric building systems is increasingly being used in the non-residential sector for projects such as schools but has yet to make a significant impact in the residential sector.
NSAI is establishing a new Technical Committee to examine the development of a National Specification for 3D volumetric building systems and is seeking experts from across the construction sector to participate.
We are seeking representation from:
- Structural and civil engineers
- Fire engineers
- Architects and architectural technologists
- Building control professionals
- 3D volumetric building system manufacturers and suppliers
- Contractors and developers
- Academics and researchers
- Insurers and warranty providers
- Certification and testing bodies
- Sustainability and embodied carbon specialists
- Public sector organisations with responsibility for construction procurement
Why get involved?
- Help shape national guidance, contribute to the development of a potential Irish National Specification for 3D volumetric building systems
- Influence future construction practices, ensure that standards reflect practical experience, innovation, safety requirements and international best practice
- Build your professional network, collaborate with leading experts from industry, academia and Government
- Earn CPD recognition. Participation in NSAI technical committees is recognised by many professional institutions and may contribute towards CPD requirements
- Training and support provided and no previous standards development experience is required. NSAI provides training and support to all committee members
