Project Description

Electronic Engineering Building, Royal Holloway, University of London

Scale

A three storey fully HybriDfma offsite engineered structure incorporating over 5000m² of precast floor and roofing units.

Flexibility

The tight site location required PCE to be flexible with their build strategy, using a three-phase programme to maximise construction efficiency.

Quality

High quality finish to exposed concrete surfaces.

Programme

Constructed in 21 weeks with a 13-personnel site team and reduction in deliveries giving carbon footprint savings.
