Bryden Wood’s Platform approach to Design for Manufacture and Assembly (P-DfMA) is a system that delivers efficiencies across the entire construction process by applying the principles of manufacturing.. Bryden Wood have taken the P-DfMA approach for the design of multiple projects, like Landsec’s The Forge office development in London, where we have followed the hierarchies described above..The Forge.. Its lean design, using a standardised ’kit-of-parts’ and the better control on the specification and procurement of materials has shown the following benefits:.
Reduction of the amount of material used.Reduction of waste produced during construction.Reduction of the time and human resources spent in the delivery of the project.
Enables local sourcing.Reduction in whole life carbon.
This has led to a 22% reduction in embodied carbon compared to the traditional construction approach.
The project predicts a 9.5% reduction in capital cost and 13% reduction in programme..He could count on receiving them, he knew exactly what they were, and he could schedule his other work around them.
This is the power of productisation, Marks says, elaborating on her previous metaphor by saying that when you build a “man-made reef in the middle of the ocean... ecosystems build around it.”.Bringing up digital twins, she reiterates that it’s only through productisation, not process, that we’ll have the level of certainty needed to be able to do things correctly and to the best effect.
However, she cautions that we can’t just jump straight from our current position, which she likens to “crawling out of the primordial ooze,” to an end goal of mass customisation akin to ordering a bespoke, Nike shoe.. Jaimie Johnston says that at the moment, there are still too many breaks in the digital chain to get us exactly where we need to go.. “We never get operational data in a particularly sensible format,” he says.“You know, the statutory approvals process isn't digital.”.
