 Welcome to our new market campus, part of the Faculty of Engineering and Science at the University of Auckland. This world-class research centre will enable the next generation of staff and students to develop innovative technologies that will deliver outstanding research outcomes. Hi, I'm Liesel. I'm the Facilities and Services Manager for the Faculty of Engineering. I ensure the facilities are kept up to standard and everything is running as it should be. The University of Auckland purchased this 5.2 hectare site from Lion Brewery in April of 2013. It was the perfect site for us with its strong floors. They had to be to hold the heavy barrels of beer and water and its large access doors in each building. This enabled us to move heavy pieces of equipment in and out quite easily. We refurbished four existing warehouses which we now call Building 901, 902, 903 and 904. We then built the new Civil Structures Hall which we call Building 906. Let's start here in reception. This space is designed to host large gatherings and events. There is lovely flow out onto the deck in summer. Reception is situated between Building 901 on our left and Building 902 on our right. We enter Building 901 on level 3. Here you will find the Thermofluid labs and the Mechanical Engineering department. This is home to engine test cells, rolling floors and two high-powered laser beams. This is home to CSEM and polymers where we have a range of plastics processing equipment like injection moulders, extruders and presses. As well as a number of mechanical testing machines for static and dynamic testing of materials. This one here is an instrumented drop-weight impact tester, one of a kind in the Southern Hemisphere. Commit these fun little guys. They're super helpful. They help the medically infirm and disabled by helping them to take their medication and get around spaces. Newmarket operates on an environmental sustainable model. These include a number of energy-saving initiatives. Some of these are building occupancy sensors and maximum utilisation of natural light and ventilation. At Newmarket, there's been a deliberate effort to create open-plan workspaces and communal areas to facilitate interaction and collaboration. This occurs not only between the postgraduate students from different disciplines and different research groups but also between the academics, the students and our industrial partners who collaborate with us. This is the Embedded Systems Research Lab. Here we have very tiny and fast computers to control electrical and mechanical systems. We also have an intelligent room which has devices embedded in the walls enabling household appliances to be controlled via the internet. This is where wireless power transfer was developed. This technology will allow electric vehicles to charge up as they drive along the road. Here it's being developed into a conveyor system for use in clean factories. Also in this lab we have smart grid research which focuses on sustainable generation and smart use of power. And here's our new automatic assembly facility that allows us to manufacture those tiny computers in-house. This building is 904. This is where the giant flume is to be relocated. Water will pump through here at a rate of 300 litres per minute filling the average size swimming pool in 10 minutes. Our most recently occupied building is the Civil Structure Hall. This houses the shaker table used in earthquake testing and currently has the largest concrete test ball in the southern hemisphere. The campus is located on Carver Pass Road which is close to the retail centre of Newmarket and has easy access to the motorway on and off ramps. It is only a 10 minute commute to the city centre and the main engineering campus. Buses are located across the road and the train station is next door. There's plenty of space around the campus to clear your mind in the sunshine. But if peace and quiet aren't your thing, the Formula SAE team has an amazing purpose-built workshop where we construct a racing car for each year. Every December we head over to Australia to compete in the SAE Australasia event where last year we came third overall. This is the beginning of unique research capability. Not only for this university but for New Zealand. It's incredibly exciting. I look forward to the impact it will make in all our lives. To our students, colleagues, industry partners and stakeholders, join us and achieve the amazing.
