Located in Guangzhou’s Nansha district, the new campus of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology – HKUST(GZ) – marries nature with technology in the local urban context, targeting carbon neutrality and zero water waste.
The campus encompasses a full range of university facilities – spaces for teaching and research, sports, dormitory, 24-hour library as well as energy and data centres – spanning over 1.1km².
Working closely with KPF Architects, Arup provided total engineering design services to deliver this smart, sustainable and resilient campus. Our scope of services covers civil, geotechnics, structural, building services, façade, smart building technology system and sustainability design.
