It was suggested that the increase in processor power will lead to rack density increasing, with the 1MW rack already being envisaged..

As designers we at Bryden Wood believe strongly in the DfMA approach and have used it successfully on many projects to achieve considerable benefits.. We advocate for any designer of buildings to apply a DfMA approach by considering efficient construction methods to leverage the benefits of manufacturing and assembly, and design with them in mind from the earliest stage.. Getting started with DfMA is the hardest part and too big a topic to discuss in detail here but a great first step is to keep up to date with MMC innovations and think about how those innovations can be used to deliver better project outcomes.. Clients can support greater uptake of DfMA by demanding the best value project outcomes to ensure a benefit-driven approach to MMC adoption is applied on their projects.. As the MMC toolkit grows it becomes more and more powerful.It is great to see players across the whole construction industry developing new innovative approaches to construction that expand the MMC toolkit.. To help the industry move forward, governments also have a role to play by encouraging and rewarding innovation and providing streamlined (but still robust) regulatory approvals processes for MMC innovations.. With a strong and diverse MMC toolkit and growing DfMA experience in the design professions, the industry as a whole will be better positioned to seize the opportunity to deliver better performing buildings, with less resources, that deliver maximum value to clients.

These are the key aims of a Design to Value approach..

demonstrate Bryden Wood’s capability in providing specialist façade design and detailing services.However, since then, only around 40,000 have been built, and only a little over 25% of those are considered ‘affordable.’ The disparity between need and production in residential architecture highlights a broader, but equally critical, issue - the problems and inefficiency of the wider construction industry.

At Bryden Wood, we hope our housing design app, PRiSM, will help to form part of the solution.. Our problem as an industry is simple enough to understand; it stretches beyond residential architecture into other social infrastructure sectors as well.Traditional construction methods simply can’t meet the scale of demand for new built assets.

Not in the future.The global population is increasing rapidly, set to reach 11.5 billion by 2050.
