The project was completed in just 18 months and awarded ISPE facility of the year.. We also successfully created something we called a Factory in a Box pharmaceutical facility.
For example, the standard building types can be used across a range of sites.For each, the site-specific design activities can be focused on the placement of the buildings relative to each other, arranging orientation to minimise overlooking and overheating (for both the comfort of prisoners and to reduce energy use), maximise views of landscape, and so on.
It contributes to overall better design and allows designers to focus more of their efforts on solving the specific challenges relating to a particular site and context.Standardised solutions lend themselves to efficiencies in construction and the application of DfMA.Operational benefits.
Standardised solutions facilitate efficient operation and maintenance, as well as aiding staff and prisoner wayfinding and navigation.. A developmental process, an evidence-based approach.Bryden Wood had been working with MoJ since 2011, when we helped developed their BIM Implementation Plan.
We went on to join the MoJ’s multi-disciplinary designer framework in 2014 and, before PETP, developed a ‘proof of concept’ for the application of DfMA to the custodial estate..
In February 2016, at the beginning of PETP, we conducted research into the aspects of design that can help influence rehabilitative outcomes.The core purpose of the project drives the analysis that informs the selection of Chips..
Defining Chips for the project.At a point in each project, we go through the process of defining Chips for that project, in order to develop a Chip library.
This can start with a reference design, or a blank piece of paper.Or we might start with a similar type of project for which we've generated Chips in the past.. Chips can be made at different levels.
