Laboratories play a key part in this transformation, supporting all stages of the life science value-chain: including R&D, quality control, diagnostic services, and teaching.
Transforming Infrastructure Performance: Roadmap to 2030.P-DfMA addresses numerous value drivers, the diagram below summarises some of the key aspects of the Building Safety Act, and how a platform approach aligns across the whole project lifecycle..

Click the 'play button' above to listen in, or read our 5 Key Takeaways from this episode below.... 1.Embracing lean construction:.Iris emphasises the importance of this approach for the built environment.
She explains that lean construction aims to deliver exactly what the customer wants in the shortest time with minimal waste, though achieving this requires balancing often conflicting objectives.Her insights into lean construction as a mindset, rather than just a set of techniques, underscore its potential to revolutionize the construction industry by focusing on continuous improvement and efficiency.. 2.
Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) & collaborative approaches:.
The podcast highlights the significance of IPD and collaborative methods in construction.Embodied Carbon Primer.
has been written to overcome the knowledge gap in the industry of how to reduce embodied carbon and how we can apply these strategies to our current and future projects.’.Bryden Wood’s work on Landsec’s Sumner Street office scheme is featured as a case study because it delivers a significant reduction of embodied carbon intensity versus that of a traditional design.
This efficiency is made possible by using P-DfMA (Platforms approach to design for manufacture and assembly) to optimise the use of materials whilst minimising the construction programme and limiting construction waste.Cundall, an engineering and sustainability consultancy, has produced an independent comparison of the embodied carbon between the traditional and P-DfMA designs, and found a 19.4%* reduction in embodied carbon per m. 2. in the P-DfMA design, a 36.4% carbon reduction in the substructure and a 20.21% reduction in the superstructure and facade..
