Jackson Building Services has secured a project with the Babraham Institute to construct a new office building at their research campus in Cambridge.

Jackson Building Services has secured a £1.2 million project with the Babraham Institute to construct a new office building at their research campus in Cambridge Jackson will build a two-storey, steel frame structure with a metal deck roof for the Institute, which is an educational charity devoted to biomedical research and training

The ground floor of the office block will be used for general storage, and one third of the floor area will be given over to a plant installation, with Jackson installing a range of acoustic finishes to the roof and walls surrounding the plant room.

The first floor of the new building will contain office accommodation and Jackson will install a lift and provide part curtain walling to the facade.

The structure will incorporate flood defence measures, with the ground floor raised one metre higher than the profile of the site, due to the building's proximity to a river.

The project is scheduled for completion early in the New Year.

Michael Manning, construction director for Jackson Building Services, commented: "The increasing prominence of Cambridge as cluster for leading biotechnology and research and development companies has provided a wealth of opportunities for high quality building contractors".

"Jackson has been quick to capitalise on this increasing demand and, with an enviable track record for project delivery, has secured a number of high profile schemes to construct purpose-built facilities across the region.".
