Can you REALLY learn how to build with SIPs from an online course?
Ā
Absolutely! Our SIP (Structural Insulated Panels) course is designed exclusively for online learning, allowing you to master this innovative construction technique from anywhere in the world. While we don't offer this particular course in person, we've crafted it to be comprehensive, engaging, and practical.
This course serves as the perfect complement to our Purely Post & Beam timber framing course. At Shelter Design Build, our design-build firm, we frequently combine SIP construction with timber framing to create efficient, durable, and beautiful structures. By learning both techniques, you'll be equipped with a versatile skill set that's highly valued in modern sustainable construction.
We've poured our extensive experience and knowledge into this course, breaking down every crucial aspect of SIP construction into easily digestible, video-based lessons. We've anticipated the questions you might have and incorporated detailed explanations and demonstrations to ensure you gain a thorough understanding of the subject.
Our recommendation is to work through the course content from beginning to end before starting any SIP projects. This approach will give you a solid foundation in SIP building techniques, from basic concepts to advanced applications. Once you've completed the course and are ready to start your own project, you can return to specific sections as needed, using the course as an ongoing reference guide.
Whether you're a timber framing enthusiast looking to expand your skills, a contractor wanting to offer more energy-efficient building options, or a homeowner planning a self-build project, this course will equip you with the knowledge to effectively work with Structural Insulated Panels. Combined with our timber framing course, you'll have the tools to create structures that blend traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge energy efficiency.
Join us in exploring the world of SIP construction and take your building skills to the next level!
