Our East Reef promenade made an appearance at this summers ‘Constructionarium’ at the National Construction College in West Norfolk – a week long educational exercise for civil engineering students from Imperial College London to construct versions of engineering landmarks. One of the four projects the students built was a smaller scale model of East Reef.  The exercise was observed by EEDA’s Chairman, Richard Ellis alongside The Duke of Edinburgh who also met representatives from Expedition Engineering who engineered the structure and detailed the steel scale model

Funding from EEDA enabled a permanent site to be established at the CITB’s National Construction College in Bircham Newton. This will allow scale projects to be built by groups of civil engineering students, supported by construction companies and engineering consultants like Expedition. The scheme is viewed as being at the cutting edge of student teaching and we were delighted to be associated with this event.
