A risk assessment or a powerful tool for the optimisation of data centre design: what should the role of CFD be in data centre design?
I work on building services.. We design heating, air conditioning & ventilation for all the buildings that we work on.
Available to purchase at.Design to Value book.value drivers are explored in depth.
Rather than a brief or a set of specifications, the design process is orchestrated at a higher level of Problem Statement and Value Drivers.Together, the development of these captures the purpose and evolves the understanding of requirements.The Problem statement and value drivers may read something like this: -.
Manufacturing Site A has evolved over time into a Jigsaw of process buildings, development buildings, support functions, and office accommodation.Some of the site is highly utilised, while others have been mothballed.
There is a mixture of asset age and the site has a number of ongoing and proposed investment cycles to replace or renovate e.g.
automation systems and utilities.. How can the site develop a masterplan which: -.At the same time, the Construction Innovation Hub (CIH) was announced, partly to accelerate the design and development of Platforms.. Also in 2018, The UKRI backing of Demonstrator projects, such as SEISMIC, opened the door to even greater collaboration between Bryden Wood and others, resulting not only in a digital configurator for designing schools, but also a collaboration between two of the industry’s leading modular competitors, Elliot and McAvoy, resulting in a standard modular connector..
In 2019, with Landsec and Easi-Space, we were successful in bidding for funding from UKRI to support a collaborative project to research and test automation in construction.This is our work on Platforms for offices and commercial developments..
This work is now a key focus for the CIH, and it is the heart of the demonstrator project that has won this latest funding from UKRI.The close collaboration between Landsec, Easi-Space, the Bryden Wood design team and a new supply chain, is now applying the P-DfMA design and prototype learnings to a live Landsec project in Sumner Street, central London..
