I first learned of Off-Site Manufacturing from watching a video about a Chinese construction company that built tower blocks ready for tenant occupancy within a matter of weeks! The company precast, built and constructed component blocks of the building which were then delivered to the site, craned into position, then permanently affixed to the structure in a carefully choreographed manner like that of the Toyota Just-In-Time principle. I knew then that this would form a large part how future construction projects were designed and carried out. Site construction can never match the repeated high quality, economies of scale and huge time saving offered by Off-Site Manufacturing, and the larger the project, the greater the benefits! It was good to see a British construction company involved, and their investment in their manufacturing facility was reassuring and impressive. Thank you for another superb video.
Amazing video as always, im still baffled of the quality of these. Reminds me of those good old docu series such as Extreme engineering back in the day in Discovery. Keep up the good work B1M ! :)
What wasn't mentioned is the importance of architects and structural engineers becoming familiar with these processes so that they can design buildings that take advantage of more efficient construction. The more components that can be manufactured offsite, the faster a build should happen. I would think.
Somebody give these guys some money to travel so they can show us the best achievements around the Word firsthand. (Do not get me wrong UK is also fascinating.)
This is by far the best program you have ever produced... I really enjoy seeing how big corporate industry is trying to move into the digital era... the next two things I would like to see is the transportation logistics involved in moving these controlled off site builds being assembled on site... Traditional methods of transportation logistics are not yet fit for purpose in this scale. Also for purposes of viewings as many more subscribers will relate to it. Can you show us, or are there domestic residential builders adopting these modular technics where you have a standard Model A;B;C variations being built offsite and assembled with different skins/ brickwork , to make them all look and feel different onsite. But the structural integrity and underlying designs are identical to benefit cost reduction. For construction building "Order to Cash" is the most single important aspect as commercially they have so much overhead locked in WIP. I appreciate there are tranches in project delivery to alleviate this congestion, but it still needs to speed up. Bankers will find this easier to finance as well. its the oldest question on the planet, How long to market.

Makes me optimistic for building in the future. It will be great to not spend 30 years paying down a mortgage if manufacturing buildings becomes much cheaper.
With Minecraft, we've successfully driven millions of kids to enjoy building and make them proto architects. Now all we need are factories that made standardized 1x1 blocks of various materials, and let them combine them in real life. That's the future of construction.
I can't help but think that as wonderful as this technology can be, it could also put a lot of people out of work. Can someone give me more details on this?
The construction industry is already facing an acute skills shortage. Many people don't want to enter an industry seen as dirty and dangerous. Offsite manufacturing will reduce this shortage, provide skilled jobs in a safe and set environment and raise quality of materials.
Further to all the great points raised on this feed, what off-site is is essentially a safe, attractive and high quality way of delivering what is currently on-site. We can also deliver to multiple projects from one location. The common employment package also offers stability in location, which a lot of site staff do not get. When thinking about our people, it's important to keep their priorities first. Regardless of where we work and what we do; we all do it for the same reasons: a brighter future for our families and our world and a means to live a better quality life tomorrow than we do today.
The advantage of this new ideas is that it will address critical safety issues associated with unskilled labour and create employment however we cannot be complacent -like in the auto industry the danger of 'architectural recalls' may become common if the approach is left entirely to non architectural and civil works experts-it calls for superior controls,a critical eye for quality over quantity and best technological practices down to the millimeter-because it is about where we live and the time we spend there when the dust settles at the construction site.
Prefab is the future of construction. Seems only logical that apartments would be built offsite, reducing costs and the need for skilled labour, as well as many other benefits. I just can't understand why this is not yet the norm in the industry, there is a massive shortage of housing in the UK and building apartments in factories and shipping them to be assembled onsite is clearly the way to solve this problem and provide affordable housing to the millions of people currently without a home or who are living in unsuitable or overcrowded environments. The real question I have is why has this not been happening already, why have we not been doing this for the past 20 years?
Today we are much advance in software and technologies; the next generations will be even more, but the fact is, ''Basics of civil engineering have been same since the first day to the last day of the planet and must not be defied to avoid the destruction''.
While I appreciate that the plant is an interesting example of automation, I have to say I'm really saddened that you used concrete an the example. It's responsible for between 8 and 9% of global CO₂ production and everyone in the design team needs to work harder to use less of it.
To your point standard concrete contributes 5% - 8% of the global Co2 emissions but that is not its only drawback. The sand component of the concrete is marine sand, the kind of sand that contains many sharp and rough grains which the cement basically latches on to it. This type of sand is becoming an evermore finite resource due to the enormous global demand outstripping the rate of natural replenishment and supply. But there are companies out there looking for ways to change that. www.dezeen.com/2018/03/24/desert-sand-could-offer-low-carbon-concrete-alternative/
B1M is an amazing channel.
No man made climate change. It's called Solar Minimum. That is the issue with his lies.
Thank you so much! We’d be nothing without our amazing viewers...! 👍💙
Agree

Fully agreed.
The quality on this channel is INSANE.
Could EASILY make documenteries themselves.

Very educative and informative video. We will soon hit B1Million subscribers!
I live behind Explores manufacturing plant and the machinery they have there are probably the best on the market

Me like your narration. Your narration very good.
Your scripts are always very very good aswell, Ive only now just realised.
Makes me optimistic for building in the future. It will be great to not spend 30 years paying down a mortgage if manufacturing buildings becomes much cheaper.
Will the banking cartel ever allow this to happen? I agree it would be great for humanity if this would come to pass
I think land will be more expensive
The production value on all of these videos is always so high! I'm not sure if it's all you or you have a great team, but either way, keep it up!
Always looking forward to your videos B1M, never been disappointed till this day. One Million subscriber mark and beyond is certain.
With Minecraft, we've successfully driven millions of kids to enjoy building and make them proto architects. Now all we need are factories that made standardized 1x1 blocks of various materials, and let them combine them in real life. That's the future of construction.
Excited to see the future of automation!
This channel is so underrated!
Love this channel and your amazing mission!
SO much quality
very good video....ur information quality day by day getting better.
A wonderfull development in the building trade and construction projects. Sign of things to come perhaps?
It is incredible!! 😀
I’d love to hear what the workers on the ground have to say about this process
wow it's almost like 3d-printing but for structural members, just with a higher level of detail and intricacy
Looking forward tot the future!
Excellent work, thank you for your sharing information.
No problem - thanks so much for watching! 👍

This video is just amazing!!!
Thank you. Very interesting and educational.
Its basically the constructions industry trying to apply Lego Digital Designer, MLCAD or LDraw into their practices/workflow.
What good mine this channel is!
Rehan is so dreamy

Thanks to this channel and few others i still have hope for the human race
Sustainable development is a dream never fulfilled.
More of this, digital manufacturing and data in construction

I hope Laing O'Rourke won't be too bothered with increased custom delays and tariffs.
pretty impressive
Love this vid
Next time you should make a video of 3d construction technology
Micro management changing the game.
Today we are much advance in software and technologies; the next generations will be even more, but the fact is, ''Basics of civil engineering have been same since the first day to the last day of the planet and must not be defied to avoid the destruction''.
VERY VERY GOOD !!!!!! And good luke from me.
Although I believe in automation and off-site manufacturing, this video seems to forget that there is no sustainable future in concrete.

This factory location..
It's Legoland on a human scale, like Shipbuilding. Fewer jobs better bottom line!
Legoland is an amusement park
everyone in the US : immigrant took our job
this video :
I like to you made a video about.. "MEXICO "..... (" Mexico " ) he going to be a "Potential".... A few YEARS !..
QUE SE SEPA?..
Voice sounds different
If this precasting site factory is not near a railway line, then its useless. Only transporting these casts by road... is dumb.
