P-DfMA: designing to zero carbon in use
Some of the key themes are around air: providing more fresh air and avoiding recirculating air.
end of bay, base of column etc.Each colour is also liked to a series of standard tasks, such as a number of bolts and setting on their torque wrench.
So, the operatives need only match the colour with the type of interface.Platforms also simplify installation down into a series of simple, repeatable, highly productive, activities, which make the sequence of work entirely predictable, the quality assured and the speed of assembly vastly increased.. Key insight.Consider the lifecycle of builds beyond completion: handing over all the information required to preserve the integrity of the build.
Industry challenge.Information handover at completion has traditionally been protracted, incomplete, and ‘file based’.
Information gathered through the project lifecycle is often focussed on that needed for construction, not necessarily that needed for operation..
Platforms solution.The guidance relates to safe working practices and the assessment of building services..
Some of the key themes are around air: providing more fresh air and avoiding recirculating air.The guidance includes bypassing those heat recovery devices which may recirculate air in some circumstances, and considering air pathways – how air comes in, moves around and leaves a building.
This is because occupants of a poorly ventilated room are exposed to a higher concentration of airborne pathogens.The risk of exposure increases with the time spent in such an environment..
