Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy was founded in 1892 and merged with Rutgers University in 1927. The institution currently has 1300 students registered, with a typical 6 year study period to graduation, making it one of the largest pharmaceutical institutions on the East Coast of America. With a growing student intake, Rutgers transformed a former lobby area into a 2-level building on the Busch Campus. The addition wraps around the existing facility and features a prominent main entry facing a number of the Busch Campus quadrangles. The first floor features a community practice suite, lecture halls, student commons space, a café, and a number of offices and student collaboration spaces. The second floor, being accessed via a sweeping glass and stone staircase, includes a clinical and hospital simulation suite, classrooms, mock admixture rooms, and the administrative suite. The addition is designed to meet the LEED Silver Certification Requirements. S C Railings (Trex Commercial Products) won the contract to supply the railing package. They utilized Glasshapes on-site digitizing service to scan the raw staircase, create an As-Built 3D CAD Model, and produce the glass. You can view the progression of the site measure and design process below. Location: Piscataway, NJ – USA Client: S C Railings

“I found Glasshape an absolute pleasure to deal with. Their level of professionalism from initial contact through to glass delivery was second to none. This was our first curved glass project and I don’t think that we could have picked a better organisation to assist us. The digital measure service also provided by Glasshape removed any margin of error and gave us complete confidence in the ordering process. We will not hesitate to use them again in the future.”
