Building ‘envelope’ consultancy and testing

RSK subsidiary Building Sciences was one of the first in the UK to offer the construction industry – from designers and contractors to end-users – consultancy and testing advice related to the building fabric performance of heat, air, moisture and acoustics.

As the most pre-eminent company in its field, it has built up a client list that reads like a who’s who of UK developers and contractors, including major names such as British Land, Asda, HBG Construction and Bovis Lend Lease.
