Exploring lean construction and the future of building design | Professor Iris Tommelein, University of California, Berkeley

Through Helen's expert insights, learn about the collaborative efforts and innovative strategies that make The Forge a model for future construction projects aiming for environmental excellence.Through this 'In Short' episode,.

With a generator, we already know its size, shape, and the way it will act.An architect wouldn’t request a generator of a custom capacity for a particular project, she says, because no one is going to decide that a manufactured product ought to be manufactured to a different capacity.. We don’t need to know many DfMA principles surrounding generators because they are productised, she says.

The problem with DfMA, “is that you have to not only understand the element that you're figuring out the rules for, but then you need to know the proprietary rules for that element.And you multiply those exponentially.It's too many.”.

Creating an opportunity: prefabrication and productisation in construction.The problem we’re currently facing, Marks says, is that “we're only talking about the baby steps of prefabrication, or really fabrication, at this point.

We're not enabling productisation.

There's a difference.data centre design.

Martin continuously explores new opportunities to evolve Bryden Wood’s purpose: connecting disparate industries through the lens of industrialisation, cross-pollinating thinking and design ideas and applying the disciplines of manufacturing to lower the entry threshold of new technologies..

In 2022, he co-authored the RIBA-published book:.Graham is a Technical Director responsible for the management of projects from inception to handover.. His role includes leading teams of engineers to meet the technical and programme requirements of projects.. Graham has over 40 years experience in the industry and specialises in the higher education and laboratory services sectors.The wide range of projects that he has worked on ensures that he can understand the requirements of different groups of end users and how these can be brought together in a sustainable and flexible engineering solution.. Graham is an acknowledged expert in both the design and commissioning of Biological Services Units to meet government regulatory requirements as well as the design of ACDP Containment Level 3 facilities and other complex R&D facilities.
