Over the years, we’ve come to recognise a wide variety of client drivers, including cost, time, net present value, capital and funding decisions.
This gives us much better, and much more considered, designs at site level.. Additionally, our work on REM teaches us that if the algorithm creates an unusual outcome, the solution is to fix the ruleset, not the algorithmic model.Over time, this creates vastly improved results, as the rules and algorithmic designs get better and better.
These results have allowed us to visualise and assess both the risks and opportunities of a smart motorway at the earliest planning stages.Consequently, it now takes a few days to do what used to take months..Eventually, we believe these design apps will start to link up and talk to each other, forming a linked digital ecosystem.
As such, this kind of broad, architectural master planning will not be done subjectively, by people, but rather will occur as a result of millions of iterations of potential placements.These placements will be optimised to create the best possible solutions for all of our major functions: education, commercial spaces, residential, and industry.
This type of optimisation will happen simultaneously and in conjunction with the same process being applied to the supporting infrastructure; road, rail, hyperloops, power and water, and other transport and utilities..
Platform Design for better individual assets.The story of M&E and P-DfMA at the Forge is one of coordination not compromise between the different elements of the design, construction and operation of this ground-breaking building.
As mentioned, by including M&E engineers within the integrated project team from the very earliest stages, and throughout, we achieve significant benefits..While the Forge is the first of its kind and setting new standards, the underlying DfMA principles underpin all our M&E design work at Bryden Wood.. DfMA adds exceptional value for our M&E clients.Martin Wood and Mark Bryden discuss the origins, growth and future of Bryden Wood, as the company reaches 25 years.Click the 'play button' above to listen to the episode, or read our 5 Key Takeaways from this episode below.... 1.
The philosophy of 'Design to Value'.Martin shares how Bryden Wood's foundational philosophy, 'Design to Value,' emphasises optimising efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and client outcomes rather than focusing purely on aesthetics.
