Leading dance floor manufacturer, British Harlequin plc, has announced that the company is now approved to offer RIBA recognised CPD seminars on the subject of 'specifying floors for dance, drama and performance'. These seminars are designed for architects who are required to undertake some 35 hours of CPD - Continuous Professional Development - training each year. The Harlequin seminar has been developed in conjunction with RIBA - the Royal Institute of British Architects. It explains how important it is to specify a floor that suits the dancers requirements, for performance, safety and according to the type of use. Also why sports floors are not suitable for performance any more than aesthetically attractive wood floors, or for that matter regular industrial and commercial grade floors. For dancers the floor is an essential part of their work environment something not always appreciated by architects. More information can be found on the Harlequin web site where there is an Architects' Area full of useful specification data, downloads, links to specification clauses and project references.
