The PS27.6M NBIF is part of the PS217M UK Collaboratorium for Research on Infrastructure and Cities (UKCRIC) that will form a co-ordinated set of interlinked national laboratories. Further details can be found at http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/research/activity/ukcric/national-buried-infrastructure-facility.aspx. The excavator is required primarily to load or distribute soils / sands / aggregate within the research pit environment. In order to do this, the following features are seen as essential.
