Students join innovative infrastructure project to build a massive scale model of the University of Birmingham’s iconic campus clock tower. Civil Engineering students at the University of Birmingham worked together to build a five-metre-tall, scale model of the iconic Old Joe clock tower as part of a new student-centred initiative during the University’s Welcome Week. The Big Brum Build (BBB) took place on campus in the  National Buried Infrastructure Facility (NBIF) with 15 students constructing the structure from scratch as part of a five-day collaborative project. The build recreated Old Joe using a large-scale stainless-steel system featuring a brick-slip façade – thin sections or slices of brick attached to an underlying panel – helping to immerse the students in an experience based on real-life engineering practices. Taking part provides a unique opportunity for students to put their theoretical knowledge into practice to construct a large-scale b...
