The project predicts a 9.5% reduction in capital cost and 13% reduction in programme..
They should figure out how to get those owners what they want, Marks says, and the owners need to be willing to take on some risk.They need to collaborate.
“Just because you push risk onto somebody else doesn't make risk go away.We have to start opening up our eyes and stop pushing down responsibility onto somebody else.That's why we're so siloed.
Also, we can't keep automating inefficient processes.”.The global evolution of industrialised construction.
Ultimately, every single part of the ecosystem has a role to play in this new world, and everyone has to work out what their role is.
Marks is enthusiastic about what will happen when we combine the amazing talents of individuals with the power of technology.Cundall updated the calculations at every stage of design, from the Business as Usual (BaU) design in 2018, the incorporation of P-DfMA by Bryden Wood in 2019, through to completion in 2023.
The BaU scheme was a traditionally designed office building with a steel frame and a concrete slab, a large basement beneath both buildings and gas fired heating system.In contrast, the built scheme used P-DfMA, worked to minimise the size of the basement and decarbonised the MEP services using heat pumps..
The results showed that the upfront carbon (the carbon used on day one to manufacture the materials, transport them to site, and to install them) was reduced by.between the BaU scheme and the as-built performance of the P-DfMA scheme.
