When achieved, this will benefit construction in a range of ways.. Firstly: it would provide greater market transparency and diversify the supply chain, meaning that companies of all sizes could engage with large-scale programmes, in the private and public sectors.. Secondly: late payment (particularly between contractors and their supply chains) has been a well-recognised problem in construction for a few decades.

The power of collaborative practice.Satwinder’s role at Sheffield University emphasises 'earning while learning,' bridging academia and practice.

The Collaborative Practice programme allows students to work four days a week in leading architectural firms, with their professional experiences becoming part of their academic learning.This innovative approach addresses financial barriers while better preparing students for real-world challenges.. 2.Diversity and inclusion enrich design.

Drawing on his own experiences as an Asian architect from a working-class background, Satwinder highlights the importance of having diverse voices in architecture.Greater representation in the profession ensures varied perspectives that enrich design solutions and create spaces that resonate with broader communities.. 3.

The value of listening in architecture.

Satwinder advocates for a cultural shift in architectural training, moving from defensiveness to active listening.This is not ubiquitous, and, in some sectors, there is a lack of market demand and economic momentum..

Some parts of the industry are well advanced in their thinking and understanding of this emerging problem, while others are at the early stages.. What defines the dilemma, as much as any measure, are the multiple avenues being investigated to improve the situation.. What defines the dilemma, as much as any measure, are the multiple avenues being investigated to improve the situation.. Reducing usage through changing chemical pathways and process efficiency/intensification, combined with local, in-house recycling demonstrate how companies are looking within to solve most of the problem.Perhaps this represents a logical approach to reducing the demand for new solvent supplies as a precedent to finding new sources of biogenic.

1. solvents.. Offsite re-cycling was deemed to have many complexities that reduced the focus on this course of action.Burning or oxidation remains a method of waste management which deals with the toxicity of the chemicals, however despite energy extraction it is perceived as very wasteful of high value chemicals..
