Students get hands-on bricklaying experience

The 40 undergraduates are studying courses in architectural engineering, construction project management, building surveying and quantity surveying.

As part of the visit to the Linden Homes development, they enjoyed a site tour so they could see homes at different build stages, and viewed an 'unwrapped' home, which features exposed walls and ceilings to reveal the piping, electrics and structural components of a new home.
