There are standard ways to address all of these value drivers, and many companies to do that.
At Bryden Wood, we have over 25 years’ experience applying all types of MMC solutions to a huge range of projects.Our industry-leading approach to MMC has developed over the years to consider ways to maximise the productivity of both off-site and on-site construction works to achieve better project outcomes for our clients.. Much of our thinking has been published on our website, particularly in our series of books about Construction Platforms, including the recently updated.
Delivery Platforms for Government Assets.The concept of a platform approach to DfMA (P-DfMA) has been adopted by the UK Government, particularly the Infrastructure and Projects Authority (IPA), who have said they will mandate construction platforms by 2023 for all social infrastructure..The pre-manufactured components of platform construction (P-DfMA) systems are specifically designed to be standardised and mass-produced by a wide supply chain, like the mechanical components of a car, to deliver the greatest possible factory efficiency and economies of scale..
The components can be easily transported and moved, and they fit together quickly and simply on site with the least amount of handling.Platform construction systems are designed to be flexible and customisable to avoid limiting design freedom and allow massing, form and aesthetic treatments to be considered on a plot-specific basis.. Driving value with MMC and P-DfMA.
Construction platforms are an example of an approach to DfMA that relies on both off-site and on-site construction works, bringing the best aspects of both.
The division of fabrication and assembly tasks has been carefully considered to maximise the efficiency of both factory prefabrication and on-site assembly.By leveraging innovative technologies and sustainable materials, Edged aims to create data centres that not only meet current energy demands but are also prepared for future growth.
This commitment to sustainability is not just a business strategy but a responsibility towards addressing global climate challenges.. 5.Using data centres as a testing ground for broader technological innovation.
One of the most intriguing points discussed is how data centres can serve as testing grounds for technological innovations that could be applied to other sectors.The consistent demand for data centre infrastructure provides a unique opportunity to experiment with and refine new technologies, such as advanced cooling systems and energy management solutions.
