The podcast delves into the potential of modern construction methodologies, such as offsite manufacturing and modular construction, to address industry-wide challenges like labour shortages, safety concerns, and environmental impact.
5mm over a 9m bay..This accuracy also unlocks existing, but underutilised capabilities in the supply chain, encouraging optimisation of their products too.
In fact, a range of complementary elements have already been developed and delivered on The Forge..Developing the façade solution around the structural platform at an early stage, allowed us to really optimise the use of materials and detailing and create the most efficient units for handling in the factory and on-site.. Wojciech Brozyna, Managing Director, Alupro.Accuracy in installation is achieved via factory conditions on site:.
Standardised platforms and components.Increased use of standardised, repeatable, design and components inherently lead to less variance and more standardised tasks on site, which already reduces the risk of the need for changes and thus the potential to deviate from the original design..
The greater use of consistent, digital workflows through design, procurement and manufacturing will extend into of logistics and labour; predicting operative numbers, positioning them on site and schedule their training and workload.
This level of control is unremarkable in manufacturing, extraordinary in construction.. 2.A built asset that delivers value across the piece.
This leads to wide-ranging benefits: cost-savings, increases in speed, quality and safety, and the creation of more sustainable buildings with projects delivering greater social value.. Digital design: using construction technology to iterate and refine.Our approach at Bryden Wood is rooted in a Design to Value methodology.
We dismantle a process rigorously until we reduce it to its smallest components.Then we call on a breadth and depth of expertise to optimise every component, so that when we combine them in the complete solution, the whole will operate to the maximum efficiency of all of its parts.. We use construction technology to create a digital model of every component, containing as much value data as we can source, ranging from energy consumption to physical space requirements to expected lifespan to cost.
