The UWS Anatomy Building 24 is a new state-of-the-art teaching facility for the UWS School of Health Science and School of Medicine. A new four-level structure was built between two existing two-storey buildings.
Works involved major underpinning of the existing fire stair, excavation under existing live class environments and working adjacent to two occupied buildings.
Specialist services were incorporated within the building to serve laboratory-teaching areas. The works also including refurbishment works to existing laboratories areas in an adjoining building.
Access for the works was limited as the new building sits between two occupied buildings within the site. Drainage and concrete pumping activities had to be carefully managed in order to minimise impact on the adjacent operations of the university.
The standard of finish was high, with a demonstrated understanding of quality detailing utilised throughout the project, and particular attention to detail in the laboratory areas.
