Webinar Overview
Join us for an insightful session exploring modern methods of construction (MMC) and their role in delivering efficient, high-quality projects. We’ll begin with a brief introduction to the Donaldson Group and Timber Systems, followed by an overview of the different MMC categories and how timber frame fits within this landscape.
The webinar will also cover the RIBA design stages, highlighting where MMC adds the most value, referencing the “opportunity curve” to show the benefits of early supplier involvement. Finally, we’ll discuss standardisation in design, demonstrating that it doesn’t mean compromise, with a range of real-world examples.
