The greater use of consistent, digital workflows through design, procurement and manufacturing will extend into of logistics and labour; predicting operative numbers, positioning them on site and schedule their training and workload.
Unsatisfactory site safety performance.Declining productivity.
Lack of creativity and innovation.. Construction 2.0. identifies three pillars to advance the future of the construction industry in HK: innovation, professionalisation and revitalisation.. BIM, DfMA and Design for Buildability all play a key role in fulfilling the innovation pillar.If done right, they can also lead to increased professionalism across the sector and help revitalise the industry for young talent – achieving industry-wide transformation..In order to make MiC adoption more appealing to private sector projects, the Buildings Department of Hong Kong has established a Pre-Acceptance Mechanism for MiC.
The Development Bureau has also released a.Technical Circular.
(2/2020) which sets out a range of government projects for which MiC adoption will be mandatory.
Early adopter projects in Hong Kong have had some success with MiC although so far this has been limited to particular building types, primarily social and elderly housing.At Bryden Wood, DfMA has been integral to our approach for more than 30 years, delivering tangible benefits across various sectors.. DfMA reduces overall cost and time (30% reductions are not uncommon), improves labour productivity, reduces labour requirements, and enhances sustainability by minimising waste, maximising material efficiency, and reducing embodied carbon.
platform approach to DfMA.has demonstrated the potential to transform the way buildings are delivered at scale..
However, the unique challenges of constructing battery factories require careful planning for DfMA to fulfil its promise..Adopting a DfMA Mindset.
