The complexity of a Kitchen Garden

The complexity of a Kitchen Garden

by Rob Burborough

3PM are proud to be involved in an exciting and unique project with the Wellcome Trust on the Genome campus. The project involves the construction of complex roof and exhibition space within a listed building context.
To give you an idea of the challenges the project team have overcome as this project enters the mid-point of construction the roof system has been developed to have tolerances of no more than 1mm with every piece of glass being bespoke and cold bent to form a seamless curved system. Every piece of the roof has been tagged, fabricated, transported across Europe and erected in a BIM predetermined 3D model.
This project is truly one of a kind and once complete will enhance the Wellcome Trust’s world leading scientific work.
