University of Birmingham School of Engineering

Birmingham

This state-of-the-art 12,000sq.m facility spans five floors and features a double-height atrium. The development aims to not only bring together many of the institution’s engineering disciplines, but also provide opportunities for successful collaboration between academia and the industry.

Procured through the Constructing West Midlands framework, the School of Engineering puts industry at the heart of the University’s campus, alongside the £16.4m UK Rail Research and Innovation Network (UKRRIN) Centre of Excellence in Digital Systems.

EH Smith worked closely with the Architect and specialist offsite GRC panel manufacturer, Tellings Architectural, to select and supply the contemporary light toned and highly textured brick.
