Where To Buy a Sebo Floor Polisher
Exploring the MMC toolkit: from offsite construction to PPVC and beyond.
The opportunity within healthcare design and build is to address all of these competing value drivers successfully.This is the essence of our core approach – design to value.. Our overarching aim is to deliver a beautiful building which achieves excellence in clinical outcomes, patient safety and user experience, savings in cost and carbon, precision in budget and timescales, and flexibility to allow for future developments, planned and not.. A holistic approach to healthcare.
Every project starts with a brief, of course.A clear brief allows for the design to be checked continuously as it evolves.Our approach to developing a brief is to place it firmly in the context of being a part of the process which ends with a fully functioning hospital.
The brief cannot – or should not – exist in splendid isolation.It must take into account the massing of the hospital, the plant and M&E requirements, servicing facilities, the extent and location of the car parks.
In our minds, the brief is intrinsically linked to the construction strategy.
It is intrinsically linked to the overall feasibility of the building.. We are an integrated company, with multi-disciplinary teams working across all our projects from the earliest stages.Build Nothing: identify opportunities to reuse existing structures, refurbish and reuse demolition materials onsite.
Build Less: optimise the building’s form, structure, structural grid, WWR and DfMA components; recommend the use of durable materials, design-out basements and false ceilings (exposed soffit); design spaces which are adaptable and can be easily deconstructed..Build Clever: specify low carbon materials with a focus on the recycled content of steel and concrete and the use of timber; maximise the recycled content of finishes, use reclaimed floors and explore system’s rental; where possible use low GWP refrigerants and avoid VRF systems..
Build Efficiently: implement innovative construction strategies such as Modern methods of Construction (MMC) and use a DfMA approach to reduce waste onsite..Offset: Any remaining carbon should be offset via recognised carbon offset schemes.
