A little more about the role…
The Constructability team provides practical advice to multi-disciplinary designers and clients at all stages of the design process on the most practical and efficient aspects of the design, material selection, and methods of building a scheme. This can take many forms, from simple advice on which materials to use, forms of construction, through to full schematics diagrammatically showing the various stages of construction.
These can be utilized to discuss and present the construction stages to various stakeholders, from both the client organization and internal design teams. In addition to the actual construction phasing, additional information often provided can include anticipated plant, labor and equipment forecasts, compound and office sizes and requirements, information on anticipated deliveries and associated vehicle movement. All the above information assists in the development of programs and cost plans/budgets.
Most of this work is civils-based in a rail environment but includes work in other sectors as well, including supporting overseas projects. Our clients include: HS2, NR, Dublin Metro, EWR, developers, Sizewell, County Councils, and contractors.
