However, there are significant problems in exploiting this, and there are country and regional variations in how schemes can work..

A recurring theme was the importance of defining and designing for value.Whether it’s reducing waste, achieving certainty in project timelines, or meeting sustainability goals, understanding what 'value' means to each client is critical.

Amy and Jaimie emphasised that industrialised construction is about delivering outcomes that matter to clients and end-users, not just cutting costs..This engaging episode of.Built Environment Matters.

underscores the transformative potential of industrialised construction and the critical role of collaboration, technology, and innovative thinking.As Amy Marks noted, the shift is already underway, and companies that embrace this change will position themselves as leaders in a rapidly evolving industry.. Stay tuned for more insights from Bryden Wood and.

Despite the availability of the technology since the 1980s, the construction industry has been much slower to apply these methods; most likely due to the nature of building design, with one-time projects using many unique elements and few repeatable processes.. Discrete Event Simulation (DES) is a method of modelling a system by evaluating a series of activities at the time they occur, or by evaluation at set points in time (every second, for example) with no change assumed to have occurred between the time steps.Eric Ingersoll has conducted analysis which suggests that if everyone on earth had access to just a median level of electricity (about 4,000 kilowatt hours compared to an existing rate of 15,000 kilowatt hours in the U.S.), even then, we’d need to triple our energy infrastructure.

It’s vital that we start taking our rising energy demand into account, and building it into our climate mitigation strategies..Replacing fossil fuels with sustainable energy infrastructure.

Overcoming the climate emergency won’t stop with decarbonising electricity production.We need to replace our entire global, fossil fuel based energy infrastructure by 2050.
