Fast Labs: Accelerating lab deployment for the bio-revolution
As a result, we’re able to give considerably more care and consideration to the design, procurement and construction of each individual part.
This standardisation can lead to mass customisation, where the construction process becomes more efficient, yet the end product can still meet diverse customer needs.. 4.Technological advancements and AI in construction:.
Iris discusses her early work with AI and how it's evolved to present times.She envisions a near future where AI and machine learning will significantly change the construction industry, from better data management and analysis to possibly altering work methods and material handling.However, she also notes the need for cultural changes to fully leverage these technological advancements.. 5.
Understanding work density and takt planning:.The concept of work density is introduced as a way to measure the amount of work done in a specific area over time.
This metric is crucial for takt planning, a method used to increase efficiency on construction sites by creating a steady workflow.
Iris explains how understanding and applying these concepts can lead to faster, more predictable, and higher-quality construction projects..Ultimately, the system played a key role in the creation of Adaptable Platforms.
which Board Director Jaimie Johnston says, ‘allows a far wider range of clients to get the same benefits without the need to create a new system.’.Speaking about the innovative qualities of the Circle project, Co-Founder Martin Wood comments that Circle Reading was the first exercise to really connect design and construction in such an intimate way.
‘The platform principle completely enshrines design and construction as a single entity,’ he says.‘It’s effectively a way of thinking, a principle where the rationale in design supports the rationale in construction in a fully unified, virtuous circle effect.’.
