CIC Webinar on DfMA – Moving Towards a New Era in MEP Construction

Webinar | 15.10.2020

The Construction Industry Council (CIC) strives to promote greater uptake of DfMA and offsite construction techniques in the Hong Kong construction industry. While concrete prefabricated components and modules have been adopted in the local construction industry, there is considerable potential for Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) designers and builders to adopt the DfMA approach to help deliver high quality building services works more efficiently than using the traditional design for insitu construction approach.

In this webinar, we are privileged to have DfMA experts from Hong Kong and overseas to share their insights and experience in DfMA adoption in MEP works. Strategies and measures for embracing this design approach will be presented and discussed.

 

Webinar's Highlights

  • How to adopt DfMA - perspectives of MEP contractor and manufacturer
  • DfMA MEP case studies
  • Essence of DfMA along the production chain
  • Formulation of DfMA MEP ecosystem

About MiMEP

Multi-trade Integrated Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MiMEP) is the integration of multi-trade building services components, into a single volumetric assembly of prefabricated modules, manufactured off-site in a workshop, then transported to the site for connection of modules to complete various trades of building services installations to minimise on-site works. MiMEP can integrate with structural element, architectural builders’ works and finishes (ABWF) to form an advanced assembly, such as false ceiling unit and plant room unit to enhance the productivity.
