Continued Professional Development - CPD Presentations

Develop your architectural practice’s knowledge and skills of tensile membrane design with a choice of three CPD presentations for architects from MakMax Australia.

Most states in Australia require Registered Architects to undertake Continuing Professional Development as part of their qualification and we have structured our presentations to meet all formal requirements. All presentations are offered in person or hosted via MS Teams/Zoom to allow for direct interaction with the presenter, and include a short learning assessment at the end.

Our CPD Presentations are a mix of technical detail and design capability and provide a solid grounding to help you incorporate tensile membrane structures in your architectural designs.

MakMax Australia Capability Presentations

We are also available to give informal presentations focusing on MakMax Australia’s capability for other industries.

Let us know if you have a project coming up that requires tensile membranes and we can tailor a bespoke presentation for your organisation to assist in the development and planning phase.

Or simply reach out to us to learn more about tensile membrane structures.

Feedback on our Presentations

“The Fundamentals of Tensile Membrane Design presentation was fantastic. It covered a good overall technical scope of what can be achieved with various materials and a great case study of exemplars.

I think the team will find the information very useful to call upon on future jobs.

Love that it’s manufactured in Brisbane. Thanks Again.”
