While on the one hand someone might worry about opening themselves up to liability by providing data, they might also be wary of someone else using their data to achieve financial gain, and missing out on the opportunity themselves.
Adapting building design for COVID and beyond.The podcast discusses how the COVID-19 pandemic has influenced building design, particularly around ventilation and air quality.
There is a focus on balancing increased ventilation, which is necessary for reducing virus transmission, with energy efficiency.This involves considering both active and passive design strategies to optimise building health without compromising sustainability.. 3.Emphasis on embodied carbon.
A significant portion of the discussion centres on the importance of reducing embodied carbon—the carbon footprint associated with materials and construction processes.As operational carbon (carbon used during the building's life) decreases due to better technology and design practices, embodied carbon becomes a larger proportion of a building's overall carbon footprint.. 4.
Innovative use of technology in sustainable design.
Advances in technology, such as more sophisticated computer modelling and data analytics, play a crucial role in sustainable building design.At Bryden Wood I have progressed to operate at an intermediate level and, on one data centre project, a senior level where I was the M&E BIM Lead on a data centre project.
It’s been a positive experience with Bryden Wood, and a pathway that others should take a closer look at.”.Find out more about apprenticeships.
