The price of land, especially in cities like London, has pushed developers to build deeper and taller buildings without much space for green infrastructure.
This will become an attractive proposition for communities, to keep jobs, attract other investment and create a better local environment.. A significant impact on global carbon emissions.Together with Terra Praxis and the wider team, Bryden Wood are developing the standardised, P-DfMA engineering solution and the digital platform with the necessary tools and services to attract enough customers and enough suppliers to this system.
Initially, our focus will be on the United States because the US is a large consumer of coal-based energy, and we are more familiar with the North American situation in terms of supply chains and regulations.But this approach is designed to be rolled out world-wide and to attract customers and supply chain partners to realise coal plant refurbishments in other critical locations.Fourth generation nuclear reactors will likely be available by 2027, by which time the platform will be sufficiently developed to realise carbon savings at a massive scale by the end of this decade.
Alongside the massive deployment of renewables, the refurbishment of 2TWe of coal globally will make it possible for us to achieve the ambitious decarbonisation targets we need to achieve, to stop climate change..

As the construction industry embarks on a transformative journey of modernisation, Jacqui Glass offers a unique perspective.
Currently Professor of Construction Management at The Bartlett, UCL, Glass has spent over twenty years in roles spanning academia, industry, government and its associated bodies.Creating flexible, digital models that reflect the world around us.
This is where the real strengths of Discrete Event Simulation (DES), or time-based process simulation, can be brought in.Using tools such as Lanner Witness or AnyLogic, a digital model can be created from the macro to the micro scale, including global supply chain and logistics, down to individual site operations.
Digital models built within these tools are made with the logic and rules necessary to represent the real-world process and constrain the system.These are typically based around the flow of operations, their dependencies and the resources required to complete them.
