What need did service fullfil?

Environmental design in architectural education appears inconsistent across schools of architecture and fails to be engaged with robustly
Reeducation of construction industry to enable robust engagement with environmental construction
Healthy building materials, design and specification in response to poor indoor air quality associated with airtightness, materials off-gassing
Solutions to overheating affecting 20% of housing
Environmental building know-how to enable a move away from business as usual materials and methods and value engineering good stuff into projects
Resource efficiency in response to high percentages and levels of waste generated by construction industry because we ignore the size of things
Appropriate and competent construction know-how to help fight off cost cutting or profiteering disguised as value engineering or substitution
Highlighting and explaining marketing greenwash and misinformation to help avoid incompetent products

Why is it Different?

Joined up thinking > joined up know-how
Issues > Problems > Solutions > Know-how
Product Data > Specification > BIM Information
Manufacturer > Supplier > Installer
Product > Accessories > Systems
Components > Sub-elements > Elements
Building Performance > Product Properties
Equations > Data sets > Calculators
Topics > CPD > Lectures > Know-how

What challenges were overcome?

Fiduciary Rules > Shareholder Profits > Value Engineering > Cost Cutting > Substitution > Inferior products > inferior buildings
Architectural Education appears strong on philosophy and graphics
but weaker on Environment, Physics of buildings, Science of materials, Crunching of numbers
Offered offered lecture courses to universities, other tutors wont admit they do not know
Practicing Architects have 10, 20, 30, 40 year old ‘College Knowledge’ and get manufacturer biased CPD
Re-education of a busy profession and industry is a real challenge
Many are reluctant to admit they do not know and bluff their way through
Delivery of bite size chunks via website makes consumption easier
Encyclopaedia are alphabetic
You need to know the jargon to find anything
Need new intuitive ways to find stuff
Mimic human brain neural network: related stuff listed and linked in both directions
Future
2D or 3D interface finds information for you
Click parts of building model and information delivered to you

What did it achieve?
What are the current and future benefits?
