The analysis showed that in fact 70% of the public sector estate could be delivered by one structural platform: a mid-span c.8m structural solution.
The Challenge aims to speed up the changes paramount to our future success, embracing manufacturing techniques, both in the supply chain and on-site, as well as expanding the use of digital technologies to foster project efficiency, design, feedback and assurance..The goal of the Transforming Construction Challenge is to use construction technology and DfMA to maximise the whole-life value of assets and to deliver those broader social value, environmental and economic outcomes we seek.
The Construction Innovation Hub focuses on these key themes, as it seeks to address the way buildings and infrastructure are procured, designed, delivered and operated with the context of a Design for Value approach.. Industry partners.The Hub works collaboratively with industry, government, academia and partners.These include the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC), the Building Research Establishment (BRE), the Cambridge Center for Digital Built Britain (CDBB), and other industry partners, including tech-powered design firm, Bryden Wood.
Jaimie Johnston, Head of Global Systems at Bryden Wood, is The Construction Innovation Hub’s Design Lead and the author of the definitivebooks on Platform construction.The Hub’s collective vision is to build more safely, to a higher quality and with all round better value.
In other words, the Construction Innovation Hub asks, how can we get more from UK construction, and how can we do it in a way which supports the industry to prosper and grow?.
Shaping the future of construction with a collaborative, P-DfMA approach.Still, with an undertaking as large as transforming construction, collaboration with industry will be crucial to success..
The good news is that we’ve already seen this happening more recently, in terms of developing policy responses to the pandemic.Whereas, previously, the government has simply implemented policies, we’re now seeing a more collaborative approach, in the form of The Construction Playbook and Industrial Strategy.
The government is now actively working with industry to make sure new policies can be implemented.It’s thinking about long-term delivery and it recognises the need to be working with industry to achieve that goal..
