The projects undertaken, although diverse in type and scale, are unified by a singular commitment to ensuring logic in the design process.Ian Pegrum joined Bryden Wood in 2013, having worked for multi-national engineering consultancy practices throughout his career.. Ian became a Board Director in 2013 and is responsible for the management of the Building Services Engineering team, as well as for our HR function..
This method also facilitates rapid assembly and cost-effective scalability.. Decarbonisation and sustainability.Addressing the urgent global demand for sustainable design, Jaimie outlines strategies to minimise embodied and operational carbon.
He delves into the move toward clean energy solutions, including advanced nuclear and hydrogen, while driving industrialised processes to maximise efficiency and reduce waste.. Intersectoral connectivity and innovation.Jaimie examines how data centre needs intersect with other sectors like pharmaceuticals and life sciences, with advances in AI and energy interdependence enabling more sophisticated, data-driven developments across industries.. Standardised, Repeatable Reference Design for Speed and Consistency.Emphasising the shift toward a. reference design approach.
, Jaimie showcases how data centres are adopting 'kits of parts,' allowing clients to scale quickly while adapting to site-specific needs.This approach leverages repeatable, standardised components, ensuring design integrity, speed, and flexibility.. You can also learn more about our approach to data centre design on our.Click the 'play button' above to watch the episode, or read our 5 Key Takeaways from this episode below.... 1.
The evolution of data centres: From one-off projects to standardised platforms.
discusses how the data centre industry is transitioning from delivering one-off, bespoke projects to adopting standardised, repeatable design platforms.Data hall configuration:.
Chilled water systems can accommodate various data hall layouts and are suitable for future integration of liquid cooling technologies.. Heat rejection plant location:.The heat rejection plant can be positioned on the roof or even remotely from the data hall itself, providing valuable design freedom..
External heat rejection options:.Chilled water systems are compatible with a range of external heat rejection options, including dry cooling, dry cooling with partial evaporative assist, and full adiabatic cooling.
