This split level steel framed building building is located on a brownfield site which has been subject to extensive groundwork remediation due to the presence of historic mine workings.
A 4m retaining wall bisects the ground floor of the building splitting the large central atria of the upper ground floor from the sports provision and changing which occupy the majority of the lower ground floor.
Large span steel beams have been effectively utilised to form the large atria and sports areas as well as a cantilevering super science lab area!
