Elements Europe has provided stylish student accommodation in collaboration with main contractor Multibuild, for a new-build at Bishopsgate in the heart of Birmingham.

The West Midlands based modular construction company has manufactured and supplied a total of 175 modules, consisting of 147 bedroom modules and associated cleaning rooms, plant rooms, stair cores, floor, ceiling and corridor cassettes- for the project.

Elements Europe also sourced and managed the procurement of a modular pre-cast concrete lift shaft for the 5-storey scheme.

All of the bedrooms have been designed in a contemporary way, offering high quality student accommodation with en-suite bathrooms, kitchenettes with breakfast bars and sensor-controlled ventilation systems to improve the building’s energy efficiency.

The rooms were manufactured over a factory period of seven weeks and on-site installation took just 8 weeks.

Elements Europe’s Kevin Arthur comments: “Modular construction offers many key advantages including a quicker build programme and improved quality of finish as the rooms are constructed in a quality controlled manufacturing environment. We take pride in working to international quality standards and in ways that limit our environmental impact and energy use.”
