£5.4m uni building completed
Work has finished on the University of Nottingham's new £5.4m School of Humanities building. The work forms part of a £90m new build scheme.
Nottinghamshire businesses Clegg Construction and CPMG have worked together to finish the BREEAM-rated 'excellent' scheme on the University Park campus.
Engineering consultants Arup also worked on the project.
The project forms part of a £90m new build programme aiming to "transform the campus landscape and set new standards for university teaching and learning facilities".
Clegg Construction managing director Simon Blackburn said: "The University of Nottingham is now established as a global force and its commitment to setting international standards shines through in the School of Humanities. It is a dramatic design in every sense and we feel privileged to have been involved."
The £5.4m build project took 12 months to complete. The School of Humanities, which has been built next to the Department of History building, has involved landscaping with plaza walkways and water features, said Blackburn.
Hugh Avison, group director at CPMG, added: "We were delighted to win the design competition for the Humanities Building, as our concept offered an innovative and efficient solution which would provide an exciting contemporary facility in which to learn and work."
