“Construction Platforms for Asia: Thoughts on the DfMA Journey in Asia-Pacific”.
Analysing this data can then help not only to understand how a supply chain or site might perform, but also to anticipate bottlenecks early and mitigate them.Applying the core tenets of Design to Value, a modelling strategy can be developed which connects the project brief and client aims to the performance of the final product, measuring options against appropriate KPIs to improve performance and reduce risk..
Practical applications to drive efficiency with DES and DfMA.Recently, we have applied Discrete Event Simulation (DES) in a project for the rapid DfMA construction of storage and distribution facilities, building flexible, digital models that can represent both the on-site assembly sequences and the supply chain operations for the construction of multiple sites in Europe.In doing so we can validate and optimise the construction programme whilst also gaining insights into frequency and pattern of deliveries.
This data can then be used to optimise stock quantities and locations, as well as discover any potential bottlenecks and options for alleviating these, to support the most efficient build sequence.. Bryden Wood has successfully applied these techniques to Platform construction (P-DfMA) and continues to do so for large clients.In using these Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) methodologies and tools we can slowly aid transformation and delivery value whilst addressing some of the most pressing sector and global issues which are faced today..

Construction Playbook.Much of the valuable information is lost because councils can’t consume the 3D designs and BIM models created by architects and engineers.. From this point, the information goes to the local planning authority.
While they’re good at interpreting it, things can take a long time depending on the size of the development.Ricketts says he’s spent time with case officers who’ve spent two days with a calculator trying to work out daylight sunlight calculations and viability.
He points out that these people didn’t go into planning to do those things.They went into planning to do the subjective work, and to do the planning..
