| BAM to сonstruct world class research laboratory The University of Warwick has appointed BAM Construction to deliver its new Physics and Chemistry Research Laboratory. The University already has significant research plans for the four-storey £17 million plus development. The building will house a world class microscopy facility and will provide accommodation for the Warwick Centre for Analytical Science which will be a national and international hub for research and training in the analytical sciences. Based locally in Balsall Common, BAM will design and construct the 4,795 square metre structure. The firm's achievements include another education building in nearby Birmingham - the Best Public Building in Great Britain, Joseph Chamberlain Sixth Form College. It has a number of signature projects within Coventry where it has been established for around 75 years, handing-over a new factory to the Alvis Motor Company in 1936. The company says it aims to involve local firms in its supply chain, and estimates that around 150 people will work on the research project which commences in earnest towards the end of March and is due to complete in autumn 2011. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Construction News :: home page |
