“Now we have developed the project further in close and good cooperation with Statsbygg, NTNU and other users of the building. This planning and coordination has been crucial to identify challenges, find good solutions and ensure that the project is carried out in an optimal manner for all parties. We really appreciate the confidence shown in us and are looking forward to starting the construction work,” says Regional Director Torgeir Wiig with Veidekke Bygg Trøndelag.
The new building will be 13,200 m2 in size across 10 floors and will accommodate just over 200 NTNU employees, SINTEF Industri, external partners and more than 300 students in five academic years. The building will have good laboratories and modern infrastructure that support the activity in the research and teaching environments of the Institute of Materials Science and Engineering and partners. The project has defined sustainability goals in the areas of greenhouse gas emissions, energy and load balancing, site qualities, circular economy and social sustainability.
Construction work starts in a few weeks, and completion is scheduled for December 2027. This commission is included in Veidekke’s order book for Q2.
