Briggs & Forrester Engineering Services complete works on the LMS building, Hammersmith Hospital

Working in collaboration with Walter Lilly, Briggs & Forrester Engineering Services have completed the MEP works on the 12,500m² London Institute of Medical Sciences (LMS) building located at Hammersmith Hospital in White City.

The new nine storey state of the art innovative research facility houses CAT II highly specialist laboratories, sophisticated imaging equipment, write up spaces, support facilities and public engagement spaces including a 120 person seminar room and café for the Medical Research Council.

The facilities are constructed around a visually impressive feature staircase and an atrium which run the full height of the building. Due to the strict criteria the building in particularly the laboratories must meet, Briggs & Forrester worked closely with consultant Buro Happold to develop solutions for multiple factors including vibrations, fume exhausts, generator emissions and acoustics.
