With the development situated near one of Birmingham’s main arterial roads into the City, Sigmat’s planning capabilities ensured that the challenge of building in close proximity of existing buildings and major highway flyovers had to be factored into the logistics and project timescale.
By designing, manufacturing and assembling the light gauge steel frame offsite the number of deliveries to site were reduced and the efficiency of build onsite maximised.With less local disruption and a certainty of timescale we were able to help create a striking new addition to the heart of the University quarter.
