Key points discussed:
Off the Shelf Extrusions + Traditional timber structure
Catergorised each element
Hybrid system - allows large spans to be created
Modified connectors + custom fabricated connectors for better structural performance
Smart cartridges - floor and ceiling panels which are pre loaded full of tech (services, wiring, communications)
Blocks - 3 main blocks - bathroom and mechanical room - fabricated offsite with the equipment in, full finished
Dumb cartridges - 2 storey panels with windows, insulation and skin installed and plugged onto structure
70% off site built
6 weeks onsite assembly + 5-6 weeks in factory (simultaneous construction)
BIM modelled allowed certainty for prefab to occur, otherwise would not have had the design confidence
