This is not a huge departure, however: rigour in approach is good practice, and the information required is already largely included in BIM models..

We have to design it into our built environment.Future-proofing is no longer about thinking how we might repurpose a building in twenty years’ time.

The question now is how we allow for changes that may well cycle round in a matter of months..In a world where everyone may need to work from home, what does that mean for designing and building flats and houses?If every occupant has to have the space, power and connectivity to work effectively?

And what will we do with that space if it’s not needed, if the occupants have jobs that can’t be done at home?.How will we design and build offices, if there’s the possibility that they might have to be re-purposed for domestic, healthcare or manufacturing purposes?

How will we adapt workspaces, ventilation, lifts and kitchens so that we can keep working if (when) new viruses arrive?

What can we do with existing buildings?.At Bryden Wood, engineers are key members of integrated teams and work closely with architects, computational designers, data analysts and mathematical modellers.

It’s a powerful combination of skill sets that finds innovative solutions to design challenges.And as you might expect from a leader in tech-led design and construction, the workflows are 100% digital.

That’s why we particularly value young people who have grown up with technology, and games such as Minecraft.Their 3D, “virtual” thinking gives them a head start in the computer modelling that our engineers use.
