The project predicts a 9.5% reduction in capital cost and 13% reduction in programme..Carbon reduction against baseline.
The path to a sustainable future.. With the growing interest in net zero buildings and sustainable construction, Bryden Wood have developed and implemented their own hierarchy to reduce both operational and embodied carbon.These hierarchies define the roadmap to achieve good and best practice performance targets defined by bodies such as LETI, RIBA or GLA.An essential part of the hierarchy, and one of the key focuses of Bryden Wood’s design approach is DfMA, which enables substantial embodied carbon reduction and creates synergies to further reduce operational carbon.
The implementation of DfMA combined with energy efficiency measures, specification of low carbon materials and carbon offset measures is the proposed pathway to the delivery of successful net zero carbon buildings..

However with accelerating interest in Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) and Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), it sometimes seems that on-site construction is falling out of favour..
In 2019, the UK’s Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) – as it was then called – published an MMC Definition Framework (see my earlier article,.They can’t tell them the concrete steps of action after the vision.
They should figure out how to get those owners what they want, Marks says, and the owners need to be willing to take on some risk.They need to collaborate.
“Just because you push risk onto somebody else doesn't make risk go away.We have to start opening up our eyes and stop pushing down responsibility onto somebody else.
