DfMA for Battery Plants

There are ‘ANDs’ the job of everybody is to find them..

We developed our Rapid Engineering Model, or REM – a digital workflow that absorbs a huge range of data sets and design rules and generates a variety of outputs.These outputs – including virtual reality motorway driving – allow us to visualise and assess risks and opportunities of a smart motorway at the earliest planning stages.

It takes a few days to do what used to take months..This approach – harnessing wide-ranging data, applying it creatively, iterating rapidly – can be applied in any number of other contexts, and we are currently working on several initiatives that need rapid implementation in the post-COVID world.Watch this space.. It’s all about agility; the ability to plan and respond to changing circumstances in complex situations.

But agility can’t simply be reactive.We have to design it into our built environment.

Future-proofing is no longer about thinking how we might repurpose a building in twenty years’ time.

The question now is how we allow for changes that may well cycle round in a matter of months..We urgently need clear and practical guides on how to deliver net zero carbon future now.

The new LETI guides fulfil this aim and are a timely addition to the growing suite of guides.This is a must read for construction professionals.’.

As things stand, the UK is not on track to hit the government target of net zero carbon emissions by 2050..The Climate Emergency Design Guide.
