We design for construction, we componentise our mass timber building structures such that they can be easily manufactured off-site and assembled quickly and safely on site.DfMA is designing for the construction phase of a building project. It seeks to extend the traditional approach of only designing for the in-use or operational phase of a project, to introduce buildability considerations as an essential part of the design process. However by splitting construction into off-site manufacture and on-site assembly it also introduces a product design approach to the design, development and delivery of building assets, the realization that assembling buildings rather than constructing them improves productivity and also improves the building product.
