To create a well-orchestrated assembly line with productive workers carrying out pre-determined, standardised and well-understood tasks in predictable timeframes..

​•​ Prioritise construction of critical production areas.. ​•​ Install site-wide utility systems in parallel with critical process areas.. ​•​ Design control systems to enable phased commissioning of interconnected sections.. Planning for the Future.DfMA benefits are maximised when applied across a long-term project pipeline.

reference designs.and pre-manufactured components enables quick adaptation to changes in battery chemistry or manufacturing processes.. As consumer demand for EVs grows, deploying right-sized facilities with standardised design templates and rapid-build DfMA methodologies will help meet increasing battery capacity needs, accelerating the global energy transition..Learn more about the benefits of Industrialised Construction.Although front and centre at this event, laboratories and the professionals intimately involved with them are often overlooked when considering their social and economic value..

In fact, the word laboratory can immediately conjure up people in white coats doing tests on wooden benches.So far, so 1990.. During the Covid pandemic, a light was briefly shone on labs’ enormous significance to our lives.

We waited for test results to allow us to go to work, we looked for information about new variants and we waited for a vaccine.

This highlighted briefly just some of the important and transformational work that happens in thousands of laboratories by millions of scientists and technicians.. Now, however, labs have moved to the background once again.. Before collating and expressing the insightful views about laboratories of the future tabled at this event, it feels important to define laboratory in the context of this conversation.And if you’d like to know more about the tech-led approach to engineering in construction, search “Bryden Wood”.Head of Sustainability, Helen Hough, joined Bryden Wood in November 2018.

In addition to developing passive design solutions for our clients, she is also a tutor to 5th year MArch students at the Manchester School of Architecture.I caught up with her to find out why, for best effect, architects should be incorporating M&E and Sustainability strategies as part of their initial design.. IP: Tell us about your work with Manchester School of Architecture.. HH: I’m tutoring 5th year students who are doing their Part 2, MArch.

It’s through one of the ateliers called PRAXXIS, which is focused on inclusivity in design.A lot of the briefs the students are given involve getting different parts of society to live and work together.
