“Everybody right now, if you're an architect or a builder, you should be working on your foundational skills with the baseline, anchor, portfolio products,” she says.. It’s then what she calls the “connective tissue” technology, the tech which forms between those products to connect them to other products, which will be the key to getting from “conceptualisation, design, to make, to operate,” she says.. Productization: building a raft in the ocean of construction.
At the outset, regulators were seen as one of the significant barriers to moving forward at speed.There was some evidence for this as changing a drug registration can take three years and has a significant cost attached to it.
However, it is unclear how many registrations do more than specify a solvent and list suppliers.If so, a change in source hypothetically is a small change.A biogenic source, meeting the specification, would require little or no change..
If only life was so simple.Current concerns about low level impurities exacerbated by issues like the discovery of nitrosamine impurities in medicines.
2. , have led to a higher sensitivity to change and the risk of unknown threats.
Unknowns are inertial (hence regulations can be enablers); and there are also clear opportunities and support to try and test new ideas and processes e.g.If these additional modular construction costs can be offset by large improvements in construction site efficiency, for example by relocating wet trades or complex specialist trades away from the site, a 3D module might make sense.
But, with modular construction, it’s often the case that prefabricating comparatively simple parts of a building as 3D modules adds cost and complexity, especially if the required trades need to be present on-site anyway..The problems found in modular construction are only compounded by inefficient factory working.
The cost of any prefabricated component (indeed, any component of any building) can be divided into materials and labour.If we ignore the cost of the labour that has gone into making the component, we only have material costs left, resulting in limited opportunities to add value.
