Local recycling, which is directly discouraged by some regulations, can increase batch-to-batch cross contamination.
In this way, the industry will become more effective, sustainable and even profitable over time.. Our strength is in our built environment, and our recovery from everything we’ve been through across the past few years will require the right infrastructure to move us forward.This is our unique moment of opportunity to shape the future of construction and positively impact our built environment for years to come, garnering government support and avoiding massive problems ahead.
We must stop and ask ourselves, if not now, when?.To learn more about our Design to Value approach to design and construction, sign up for our monthly newsletter here:.http://bit.ly/BWNewsUpdatesDespite its vast size, the construction industry is well known to be one of the least digitalised sectors in the world.
While there are pockets of the ecosystem pushing technology in areas like DfMA, Kanban and Just-in-Time (JIT) systems, the majority of construction remains relatively undigitalised.At Bryden Wood, we’ve long been committed to the pursuit of digital innovation and construction technology.
From our digital design configurator apps for schools and housing, to our transformational, cross-sector work with platform construction (P-DfMA), our goal is to use smart tech to advance a better built environment.
We’re always excited to talk to other industry players who share our goals, focus and passion for modern methods of construction, driving improvement by embracing change and leaning into construction tech.. We caught up with Craig Lamont, Chief Commercial Officer for Australian digital specialists, asBuilt, and found out how they’re using construction technology in smart and unconventional ways onsite.It is very important to balance these needs and think carefully about our HVAC management and controls.
But most importantly, we need to design buildings which are resilient and adopt the principles of passive design.Buildings that adopt adequate solar control measures, good thermal insulation, good daylight levels and openable windows via narrow plates have the capacity to reduce peak heating and cooling gains and the dependence on mechanical ventilation, where feasible..
The growing importance of physical and mental wellbeing in architecture and design.Due to the side effects of COVID-19, physical and mental wellbeing are becoming a key priority for many building developers, designers and construction companies.. Buildings (residential and commercial) are places to live and work but increasingly also to play and move, with a strong focus on physical activity and active lifestyles.
