Laboratory Fitout

Overview

Murcom delivered a complete transformation of the outdated RCSI PBS Laboratory, creating a world-class teaching and research facility within a tightly constrained live university environment. Delivered by Murcom within a strict four-month summer window, the project doubled student capacity, introduced an advanced AV teaching system, and upgraded all laboratory infrastructure to modern standards—while maintaining uninterrupted research operations on the floor below. Working in a constrained city-centre location, Murcom engineered an innovative Level 1 external crash deck for material movement and executed all intrusive MEP tie-ins during planned weekend shutdowns. This approach ensured a safe, efficient delivery without disruption to staff, students or neighbouring businesses. The project achieved exceptional feedback from RCSI and has directly led to significant repeat business across multiple universities. The new PBS Lab now features prominently in campus tours and international recruitment materials, reflecting its quality, impact, and long-term value to the institution.
