Having worked for manufacturers, distributors, importers and contractors into the UK construction / fit out sector, I feel I offer a well-rounded approach to understanding the needs of a contractor and that of a manufacturer. Some say poacher turned game keeper when discussing the needs for margin in our industry. Focused on profit and returning on investment made by employers, backed with good humour and hard work ethic.

Working closely with architects and designers to ensure the solutions fit the brief and developing bespoke solutions for them. Backed by firm manufacturing knowledge both in house and supply chain, ensuring best fit for the client and budget.

I look forward to developing my skills set further and connecting to new people from such social media sites as this and developing strong business relationships and achieving my own goals and that of my employers. But above all enjoy what I do and developing my career further.

In my spare time I run a championship winning race team with 2 of my close friends, running in UK at all major circuits which is a great release and opportunity for networking.

Brian is the Technical Director at Richard Hopkinson Architects, an award winning based in London and Kent, with 26 years’ experience in architecture & construction. Brian’s particular expertise lies in developing optimal solutions for the technological and construction challenges of projects, whether these are traditional delivery or off-site / DfMA projects.

Brian is responsible for ongoing development of the practice’s off-site construction (Design for Manufacture and Construction – DfMA) initiatives which are integrated by the practices’ strong Building Information Management (BIM) working methodology, spanning multiple software platforms and niche applications.

Brian’s MSc focussed on the comparative environmental performance of Off-Site and traditional construction, which has led to a pragmatic appreciation of not just the deliverability challenges facing the industry and the environmental aspects, but also an understanding of which systems are going to deliver best value for a particular type of development.

We recognise that light steel is perfectly positioned to meet the exacting demands of the offsite construction industry.

Our cutting-edge technology and insightful research enable us to promote the steel frame used in manufacturing processes. Through our research processes, we provide leading industry insights that constantly support light steel manufacturers’ evolving objectives and needs. We consistently raise awareness of light steel frame technology across all building sectors in relation to our members’ provisions.

The Light Steel Frame Association is managed by a board of directors. Our directors’ skillsets enhance the organisation with a wealth of experience and unrivalled knowledge. We are also partnered with industry leaders, including the Steel Construction Institute and the Modular and Portable Building Association. Our partnerships further the advice and guidance that we offer to our members with expanded industry expertise. We support everyone who plays a role in steel production, from manufacturers to design engineers, architects and commercial directors.

Trimble’s digital technology suite enables innovative constructible processes that transforms key stakeholder BIM workflows from conceptual design all the way to efficient fabrication, pre-fab and on site construction processes so all projects are delivered on time and in budget.

Our world leading Tekla software portfolio covers the entire structural workflow from engineering design, detailing and fabrication management all the way to site operations.

Nick joined Taplanes in 2007 and was for many years one of our most skilled and experienced fabricators but is now putting his vast experience of making the product to good use – by moving into specifying and selling them! He has always enjoyed supporting the design team to build prototypes and new products and when the need arises, offers customers on-site support; so this is a natural transition for him.

Outside of work, Nick loves spending time with his family and teaching his kids all about Italian food just the way he was taught. Born in North Yorkshire but fluent in Italian, he likes his football, enjoys keeping fit, is a boxing enthusiast and has a passion for drawing.

Born with a plastic spoon in his mouth, Dan, also known as ‘The Wizz Kid’, only experiences brief moments of shower-free thoughts when endorphins, caused by extreme exercise or alcohol consumption, overwhelm him.

Dan lives for the buzz of a successful showering solution and immediately falls in love with those who supply shower-related problems to feed his addiction. An odd child, he started working at Taplanes in the noughties, straight out of nappies, and hasn’t been the same since….. neither has Taplanes!

I joined FP McCann at the beginning of 2017 to head up the Architectural and Structural Precast division of the business. During this time, I have worked with an array of clients, engineers, architects and consultants on a wide range of project types and sizes.

Whilst many businesses operating in the offsite market have developed digital solutions these are often stand-alone. The next steps for them, and the wider industry, is to connect these solutions and drive wholesale digital adoption in their businesses.
Connected digital solutions allow organisations to re-use data and to improve their internal and external workflows. Furthermore all this should be based around trusted content whether2D or 3D information.
In this presentation Steve Insley will discuss how the move from just modelling to delivering true collaborative BIM workflows is already helping the offsite industry and what we should expect next to practically deliver even greater benefits.

Virtechs Ltd was founded in 2006 in order to provide 3D, 4D and 5D Architectural Services to the Construction Industry. By using a combination of ‘Archicad’ and ‘BIMx’ software, we provide our clients with the ability to experience immersive ‘virtual tours’ throughout every stage of the design on a variety of devices.

Until now, the ability to tour the building in this way has only been available at the pre-build stage.
