A trailblazing new education project in the heart of Buckinghamshire
Stowe School is an innovative development in Buckinghamshire, where B&K Hybrid Solutions are delivering the CLT and Glulam engineered timber, on behalf of Beard.
BKHS works include erecting the cross laminated timber floor and roof panels, glulam beams and columns and ground floor steelwork grillage for the Design, Technology & Engineering (DTE) building.
Exposed timber has been specified for its low carbon benefits. Utilising glulam and cross laminated timber has enabled material usage to be reduced and facilitates easy deconstruction if required at end of life. When complete, the project will include modern teaching spaces, studios and workshops - serving as its own educational resource - to become a new state-of-the-art facility on the school’s campus in the grounds of the historic Stowe House.
"We're delighted to be delivering the innovative Stowe School alongside Beard Construction and the local authority. BKHS have a great wealth of experience in the education sector, and are excited to add another premium, low-carbon building to our repertoire.
The project shows a real commitment to low-carbon building solutions and we look forward to sharing the journey with the students and faculty at Stowe School"
