Buildings that adopt adequate solar control measures, good thermal insulation, good daylight levels and openable windows via narrow plates have the capacity to reduce peak heating and cooling gains and the dependence on mechanical ventilation, where feasible..
The projection is that the industry will make a 45% shift to industrialised construction.Companies that do this well will increase their value, but changes will be necessary.
For a start, technology spending will double.. We’ll also need to have a complete understanding of how the traditional and industrialised aspects of a building will interact with each other, she says.. “You're talking about interstitial spaces, adjacencies, attachments, components.You need to know it for everything,” Marks says..Looking toward the future: sustainability in construction.
Still, the reality is that the construction industry has been in a state of poor productivity and other difficulties for decades, so why is it that we finally appear to be standing on the cusp of an industrialised construction transformation?.We’re ready now, Marks says, and we don’t really have a choice.. “Technology has changed, the environment has changed, the workforce has changed, the designs are more complex.
There’s a lot of things closing in on the space that's creating a lot of dissatisfaction, and the people who have the money are the most dissatisfied - the big end-users, the big governments…”.
Around the world, she says, business restarts want three things: digitisation, industrialised construction, and sustainability (mostly in the form of understanding carbon).Accelerate Pharmaceuticals.
This initiative aims to foster a collaborative environment where companies can collectively address common engineering challenges in pharmaceutical manufacturing.The guiding principle, 'Compete on chemistry, collaborate on engineering,' reflects the approach that while each company maintains its proprietary research focus, they come together to share innovations in.
process intensification, modularity, and automation.This collaboration is intended to reduce costs, enhance sustainability, and ultimately accelerate the production and accessibility of essential medicines.
