  3. Civils Insight Participants Master Masterplanning

Hitting the midway point of our Civils Insight Programme has allowed our students to delve deeper into the design cycle, including Masterplanning.

We welcomed Board Director, Dan Evans who spoke about the RIBA stages and how this is crucial in project success, in line with other factors including sustainability and procurement.

Thank you to special guest Xu Zheng from Hawkins\Brown who spoke about an architect’s perspective working in collaboration to achieve Masterplanning. Xu demonstrated the fantastic projects that Hawkins\Brown work on across a number of sectors, specifically Stevange Life Sciences Campus. The group also gained valuable insight into an architect’s approach to masterplanning, goals, challenges and engineering solutions, as well as the evolving changes in industry and delivery.

The NPPF's New Flood Risk Rules: What Every Developer Needs to Know

The Government’s August 2026 update to the NPPF is the principal planning policy document for England and brings major changes to flood risk policy. While attention has focused on housing and planning reform, the new flood and drainage requirements could significantly affect development sites across England. The changes do not necessarily make development harder, but they do make it essential to identify flood and drainage constraints early, as these are now key development considerations rather than just technical issues.
