LBYD is proud to celebrate our team鈥檚 recognition by the . The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Altec/Styslinger Genomic Medicine & Data Science Building received the Grand Award in the Structural Systems category.
Representing LBYD at the awards ceremony were Patrick Lyons, PE, Huntsville Branch Manager and Senior Principal, and Ashley Carden, PE, Senior Project Manager.
The award-winning project is a 175,000-square-foot, eight鈥憇tory, concrete-framed medical research facility located in the heart of Birmingham. This innovative effort transformed two existing 1960s-era structures, unifying them into a modern, state-of-the-art research environment. A newly constructed eight鈥憇tory addition further expanded the building鈥檚 capacity and functionality.
With an $80 million construction budget, the UAB Genomic Medicine & Data Science Building stands as a significant investment in Alabama鈥檚 biomedical research landscape鈥攕howcasing the power of adaptive reuse, advanced design, and collaborative engineering.
