The new Gateway Building will add 12,000m2 of science teaching, research and laboratory facilities to the Kelburn campus. It will be a long, low four story building—some of which will be below ground level. The building will encompass modern teaching and research environments that are designed for the digital age. The science building is expected to be completed in mid 2017.
Lighthaus Limited is providing the Lighting control system for this project, integrated into the HVAC and BMS systems the Dynalite control system will help to provide an energy efficient lighting solution for the building. Lecture theatres are integrated with the AV control systems to provide a seamless single point of control for the entire space. Occupancy detection and timeclock controls look after the public spaces in the building, requiring minimal user interaction.
