At Bryden Wood we’ve found that some of the greatest successes and quickest changes come from cross-fertilising ideas from one sector to another, disrupting a long-standing model with a better way of working.
This provides additional opportunities for reusing materials.. Use technology for green buildings.Using digital design tools as part of a sustainable construction strategy enables exact material quantities to be determined, down to the number of screws and bolts required for a building.
This allows materials to be ordered with minimal wastage.. Material passports can be assigned to every material within the building, listing out its environmental and technical performance.This means materials can be selected on their environmental merits.At the end of the building’s life, materials can be correctly reused and disposed of due to the knowledge of the material.. 3D printing building components enables exact shapes to be manufactured, improving accuracy and reducing waste for more sustainable construction..
Virtual reality can be used to create replicas of buildings and spaces so the client and building users can experience a building before construction.This means modifications can be made to the design to improve it, reducing the likelihood of post-completion changes and the associated material usage..
Product as a service.
Product hire allows products to be used multiple times during their life across a number of different buildings and applications.Digital Tools as the Backbone of Reconstruction:.
