Building the future: Breaking stereotypes and innovating in construction
Manage episode 490477526 series 3671094
In today’s world, buildings are becoming more complex than ever before. With the world racing to build the infrastructure of the green transition, the fourth Industrial Revolution and create resilient communities for growing populations, there is a pressing need for the industry to shift away from traditional processes and embrace new ways of designing and delivering buildings. How can the industry tap into this to advance project outcomes?
In this episode from our Positive Impact podcast series, BBC1 reporter and presenter Lucy Siegle chats with Dale Sinclair, Head of Digital Innovation at WSP, and Mark Farmer, CEO of Cast Consultancy, who are leading the charge in modernising the construction industry. They explore the transformative approaches that are responding to changing complexities. One of the key strategies discussed is the innovative kit-of-parts approach, which promises to revolutionise how buildings are designed and constructed.
