These facilities handle chemicals, metals, and intermediate products with stringent safety and environmental control requirements, often in direct partnership with carmakers like GM and Tesla..
But there are also many elements that are, or could be, automated or standardised across multiple processes in one or more sectors and industries.Discovering standardisation adds its own value; not having to reinvent the wheel with every project; being able to apply the learning gathered from previous projects to the current one; and resource and cost efficiencies in all stages of design and production..
The benefits of standardisation are visible every day in the manufacturing industry, at global scale.At Bryden Wood, we bring them to construction.We used the principles of Design to Value described above to define a standard set of components and assembly techniques which form the basis of a huge range of buildings, from residential to industrial architecture.. We called this a Platforms approach to Design for Manufacture and Assembly (P-DfMA).. Our Platform construction work.
is well documented and has been endorsed by the UK government for use across its development programme.. Evidencing the benefits of Design to Value.We are currently on site in central London with.
, constructing a major commercial office design development using Platforms construction, which is already showing exceptional environmental gains, for example: a 40% reduction in steel used; a forecast 19.4% reduction in embodied carbon per square metre, a 36.4% carbon reduction in the substructure and 20.2% in the superstructure and façade..
In 2019, a new GSK facility started production in Parma, Italy.and Digital Innovation.. Jami’s simultaneous involvement with our.
, Creative Technologies and Integrated Design teams allows her to straddle the virtual and real worlds, and to push the boundaries of traditional architectural design.She delivers solutions that combine cutting-edge approaches to.
with digital technology for both public and private sector clients alike, (particularly within the residential and education sectors.)Bernat joined Bryden Wood in January 2018..Previously, Bernat was involved in delivering a wide range of structural solutions, from small and medium residential developments to industrial and commercial projects; including new builds, extensions and refurbishment of Grade I and II listed buildings.
