Equally, we must recognise just how crucial construction standards are, particularly as the industry modernises and transforms.

This increase in participation leads to far greater benefits for the project than just progressing in a very linear way, resulting in one solution produced by a single design team.On top of this, having the ability to generate a data model and undertake significant amounts of simulation, allows aspects of a design to be tested much more rigorously than by traditional means.

Together, all of these factors culminate in the delivery of the best possible buildings.. Education, Construction Technology and the Future of Construction.At Bryden Wood, our aim is to change the process of design through the use and adoption of technology.As we do this, we need to start to attract more diverse people into the industry.

Working with technology in new and exciting ways helps with the industry’s broader image.In addition to our well-known problems with inefficient processes and insufficient output, the construction industry faces other, compounding issues - namely, a serious skills shortage and an aging workforce.

As a result, it’s vitally important that we begin to encourage young people to come and join us.

We must highlight the fact that new technologies are possible in construction, and make sure that such technologies play a key role in how we design and construct..It was suggested that the DC industry could help focus and accelerate development through the creation of an Industry-Brief defining the market.

This idea, of course, would need further collaboration across the DC ecosystem.. To bring the session to a close, there was a round-up of the issues and barriers that need to be solved in the short term.How to deal with irregular site design, different business drivers and limitations of template designs.

How to do the above and meet acceptable price points.How to find sites with reliable power.
