BoPS would take the information and present it to the case officer.
The good news is that our data is improving all the time, and the industry is gaining momentum around the issue of sustainability with respect to embodied carbon.Within the next couple of years, we’re going to see an amazing increase in knowledge.
Project life cycle assessments (LCA) are becoming standard practice.Five years ago, that simply wasn’t the case for most consultancies.There’s also a lot more guidance around now, for example, from bodies like the Chartered Institution of Building Service Engineers (CIBSE)..
Sustainable building materials and platform construction.One topic which must be addressed in relation to the reduction of embodied carbon is the sustainable use of building materials.
This is an issue we’re particularly focused on at Bryden Wood, in our work with Platform construction.
This transformative kit-of-parts approach enables a reduction in the quantity and weight of building materials.Rigorous, automated QA gives total confidence in compliance.
Automatic generation of models ensures that the correct components are used and are performing within their defined parameters and also that the data is properly structured and follows all of the information management protocols.. NB Even if the models are not automatically generated, the same principles can be used to create automated workflows e.g.scripting or use of software such as Solibri.
This helps ensure that even manually created models can be checked to ensure that again all of the technical requirements and constraints are being met..This digitisation or automation of all aspects of the design and the data attached to it, allows an automated checking process that isn’t subject to human error, so teams can be confident that the testing and certification is rigorous and holistic..
