Based on UKGBC’s Net Zero Carbon Buildings “A framework definition", a typical Cat A office’s building embodied carbon, after the first year of use, would be 75% of the total carbon, whilst the operational carbon would be around 25%.
That’s why we particularly value young people who have grown up with technology, and games such as Minecraft.Their 3D, “virtual” thinking gives them a head start in the computer modelling that our engineers use.
From defining problems and generating creative solutions, then testing and refining those solutions, through to the efficient execution of final assets, the process is digital and forward looking.The question for us is not “how is this done traditionally?”, but “what is the best possible way to do this?” For young digital thinkers, as for all of our engineers, that commitment to innovation, is a compelling reason to work here, rather than the technology sector.. How to get into engineering at Bryden Wood.Awareness of what engineers do, and the attractions of the industry, is improving.
But how do you get a job in it?Many assume that you need to have a university degree, and that’s a great option, but not the only one.
Taking the apprenticeship route has many benefits.
It immediately places you within the workplace where you learn practical skills, whilst engaging in the academic work needed to gain professional qualifications.• Inboard design: rooms facing the corridor with toilets in the facade.
• Outboard design: rooms facing outdoors with toilets adjacent to the corridor.• Nested design: rooms facing outdoors and connected to corridor.
Toilets nested..The first option represents a trend in hospital design in which patient rooms are open and easily accessible from corridors, in order to improve staff-patient visibility and increase operational efficiency.
