FIA Monthly: Detail Clinic Video Series, Building Fabric - Sound, Black Friday
Introducing the Detail Clinic Video Series...We are really excited to introduce our brand new detailing series. The Detail Clinic video series takes a real student markup of a construction detail and talks through all the common questions that come up. The first video looks at a typical masonry cavity wall foundation detail. Alongside the video you can download our free student pack to help with your learning. We hope you find the video useful.
Black Friday is ComingJust a little heads-up. At the end of the month, Friday 28th November, we will be celebrating Black Friday Weekend with another massive sale. This is always our biggest sale of the year where you can pick up huge discounts on our books and other products. Keep an eye on your inbox for all the details later in the month! That wraps up our news for October. I hope you have been enjoying this lovely autumn. Thank you for being here, for reading our emails and for spending some time on our websites. Your support, comments and feedback mean a lot 🙂 All our best, Emma and the First In Architecture Team ​First In Architecture | Detail Library​ |
