Rebuilding Ukraine: Industrialised Construction & energy solutions | Martin Wood & Jaimie Johnston MBE

Secondly, the expectations of the new cohorts of the workforce.

to railways and.This blog will focus on the latter and particularly with the size and scale of unit operations in production plants.

I will reiterate here that I remain highly curious that most economic discussions focus on economies of scale and thus constantly encourage scale increase and growth.T. hey talk little about the diseconomies of scale.– a. potentially dangerous blind-spot.

In all systems there are performance curves which demonstrate operational ranges where the most beneficial outcomes are achieved, these are always constrained at both ends.As density of traffic increase on a motorway, the volume throughput of cars.

and the car throughput spectacularly dives.

commuters know all too well.In addition, this creates many more opportunities to implement automation and digital tools, particularly in off-site manufacturing..

Previously, we have covered the general benefits of discrete event simulation (DEM) in construction (https://www.brydenwood.co.uk/discreteeventsimulation/s97989/), and the increasing use of these powerful tools as a core part of automation in construction.The need for these tools is on the rise as design and construction continue to tackle some of the largest issues an industry could face: low and declining productivity, poor predictability, shrinking workforce and skills shortages.

Other industries have been able to embrace new approaches and technologies to see continual year-on-year increases in labour productivity and other areas.As we move towards the future, construction firms will need to embrace construction automation and MMC, to create positive transformation in the industry..
