I have known about CIRIA for years, yet I hardly access the site, perhaps thats because it was unhelpful or the logon was painful, I have received their paper communication also for ages, and apart from certain items it was uninspiring, yet something just made me look at this again this morning, and I had a pleasant shock, the site has become, well interesting, I received in the post the usual paper CIRIA magazine, and after thumbing through it, I thought, this is not half bad, and logged onto the site, now this is where I often give up on old log in, but the system found me and allowed me to entre, I’m more than impressed at this stage.

The site is quite easy to navigate, and there is an awful lot to look at, I went on to the Knowledge base, and the Construction and Technology base, its impressive,  but here the pain starts, there is a ranking system employed were some information is paid for, some restricted to members, ie you have paid for a better class of membership. still its there and if your really interested, you’ll pay up.

Overall the site is worth a visit, there is an awful lot of information here, but the payment system means I could not access a lot. but I did manage to look at some things, like dry stone walls, not a huge leap in technology, but interesting !. I’m going to claim 1/2 hour of ok CPD
