These materials are useful, therefore, and we shouldn’t discount their potential in this area because of their historically carbon emission heavy synthesis.. Our goal, therefore, is to find ways to make the production of industrial plastics less reliant on fossil fuels and to reduce their carbon footprint as much as possible..
Construction technology: Building with agility and building agility in.In the Creative Technologies team at Bryden Wood, we’ve been working for some time with Highways England on smart motorways.
We developed our Rapid Engineering Model, or REM – a digital workflow that absorbs a huge range of data sets and design rules and generates a variety of outputs.These outputs – including virtual reality motorway driving – allow us to visualise and assess risks and opportunities of a smart motorway at the earliest planning stages.It takes a few days to do what used to take months..
This approach – harnessing wide-ranging data, applying it creatively, iterating rapidly – can be applied in any number of other contexts, and we are currently working on several initiatives that need rapid implementation in the post-COVID world.Watch this space.. It’s all about agility; the ability to plan and respond to changing circumstances in complex situations.
But agility can’t simply be reactive.
We have to design it into our built environment.The most important thing is to enjoy your job.
It’s about being a good engineer.'.MARTINA CARDI, ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR, ARCHITECTURE.
'At Bryden Wood, it’s all about the role you have in the project and not whether you are a woman or not.Overall in the office, it’s still probably more men, especially when you look at all the disciplines, but when you look at the architectural team we are completely balanced....
