Global
Strategies
The guild has been established to form an international group of like minded people, Organisations and Companies, Government Officials and Educators to seek and establish ways of MMC ( Modern Methods of Construction ) and using both existing and new methods to better and enable the mass construction of social housing.
The founding members have each been actively involved in construction for many years and although some represent their own companies and products, the drive of the Guild is to seek existing and new technology to be better able to deliver on its goals for mass housing.
Price, speed, quality, durability and the environment are the guilds foundations.
Anyone can join so long as they are involved in some manner with the construction industry. Currently there are three tier levels being Member, Contributor and Adopter. ( see membership page for exact details )
Building Construction
The structure of a building, large or small, must use as many carbon neutral or negative elements as possible, whilst maintaining strength and durability for seismic, flood, fire, longevity better than conventional methods of construction.
Interior Construction
The interiors of a building must utilise the latest technology to reduce carbon footprint, labour time, costs and whilst retaining higher quality, durability and longevity.
Design and Architecture
The education of designers and engineers as to the mmc of the Guild and its partners is paramount in helping the world to build social housing by ensuring that mmc is adopted in the earliest stages in a development.
Energy
The Guild will continually seek ways to reduce consumption of energy and find ways to produce energy within the remit of a development. Engaging with industry and educational establishments is a fundamental goal of the Guild
Water treatment
Both the treatments for used water and the preservation or collection of fresh water are priorities for better sustainability for the Guild and its members.
Government Engagements
The Guild engages with government ministers globally and also industry leaders to ensure that the message that there are ways to meet global demands for social housing, is a fundamental part of the Guilds purpose.
