Offsite Construction Plan

The platform system, known as P-DfMA (Platform for Design, Manufacture and Assembly), consists of a set of components that can be efficiently combined to produce highly customised structures. The system's foundation of repeatable procedures and standardised connections makes it possible to construct various types of environments with just a single "kit of parts" (Fig 21). The P-DfMA system makes use of standardised components that are put together with a 'kit of parts' technique. It is anticipated that the undertaking will be finished forty percent more quickly by making use of this innovative building procedure as opposed to finishing a commercial project of a comparable scale utilising construction methods that are more conventional.

"The Forge is creating new industry standards for building that is both environmentally friendly and economically effective. According to Neil Pennell, Head of Design Innovation and Property Solutions at Landsec, "the use of an innovative P-DfMA structure and 'kit of parts' approach is a world-first for a commercial office project."
