PROJECT OVERVIEW
The University of Reading enlisted our help with de-commissioning part of a 1960’s built research faculty at their Whiteknights campus. As well as designing the refurbishment of the basement, ground and first floors, duties also included a survey of the existing structure which brought about the recognition of high levels of asbestos. All works were carried out whilst retaining the existing services and infrastructure to the Bio-science lab, science museum, refectory, lower floors, roof area and all fire escapes.About This Project
