Engineering informed by construction.
RAM considers how the engineering will actually be constructed, including materials, connections, access, sequencing and constructability.
Understanding how the work will be constructed can help identify opportunities to simplify details, reduce unnecessary material and avoid difficult or inefficient construction. Where alternatives are available, RAM considers the engineering requirements alongside the practical and economic impact of the solution.
