PRiSM housing design app: transforming residential design

It’s the benefit of early stage involvement.

Reduce, rationalise, standardise and optimise the design, approval, manufacture, assembly and operation processes, in order to.Reduce, rationalise, standardise and optimise the interactions between the required different supply chain organisations, to realise the processes described above at the scale that is required.. Terra Praxis are creating a business model that uses technology to connect people, organisations, and resources in an interactive ecosystem in which value can be created and exchanged.

To realise this ecosystem, Bryden Wood is involved in developing a technological infrastructure that provides tools and services that make it easy for customers and suppliers to interact to realise the required refurbishments.. To make that possible, Bryden Wood also need to create an engineering platform solution: a building system that can deliver the required variety of solutions for differing requirements in different situations, but that is rationalised, standardised and optimised appropriately to enable the required simplification of all processes that make it possible for the supply chain to collaboratively deliver this built solution.. New nuclear: system simplification and standardisation with P-DfMA.Existing coal plants vary widely.There are very different site layouts and different levels of site conditions.

The seismic conditions in particular are very important, as they have a major impact on the design of the safety systems and therefore increase the complexity of the design.Existing power stations also vary in capacity, and the various nuclear reactor technologies are also different from each other..

The strategy for achieving the required level of standardisation is to isolate variability.

Six standardised seismic isolation solutions can deal with most of the seismic conditions we will encounter.But architects’ potential impact on the built environment is constantly smothered because they have to do a ton of boring stuff and can’t focus on what they want to be doing and where they can add the most value; which is the clever, creative stuff.. Software next.

The software we use in the construction industry is designed (as for every industry) to appeal to a wide audience and to deliver functionality to the largest number of users.This means it will often support mainstream design behaviours but it won’t push the boundaries of the possible.

It is not the place to find the future of design.It stabilises recent or novel design approaches, but it doesn’t help develop new ones.
