In this ebook, Buildoffsite<\/a> illustrates the benefits of combining design for manufacture, assembly and offsite construction for long-term, large-scale bridge and viaduct projects<\/h2>\n

Together, these innovative methods can provide benefits at every stage throughout the infrastructure’s lifetime, from architectural concept through to procurement considerations and the logistics of assembly.<\/p>\n

Aesthetically pleasing designs<\/h3>\n

For example, offsite construction<\/a> enables more precise manufacturing and can minimise the disruption and risk on the local population during assembly, as well as improve safety whilst keeping aesthetically pleasing designs in mind.<\/p>\n

By using components designed with longevity, offsite construction can offer additional functionalities with the opportunity to build-in services for electricity, water and waste water, as well as monitoring technology that facilitates better and efficient lifetime management of the bridge or viaduct.<\/p>\n

Modularisation and customisation<\/h3>\n

When designers, manufacturers and clients work collaboratively, design for manufacture encourages innovation, in terms of design, materials and futureproofing. Modularisation and mass customisation can also enable the efficient creation of new products, meeting cost, design, functionality, safety and longevity requirements.<\/p>\n

Finally, this ebook considers how these approaches can reduce waste and ensure the project progresses at a time and cost-efficient rate.<\/p>\n
