In this issue of the Arup Journal, we begin with a look at Commerzbank's new headquarters in Frankfurt which sets fresh standards of in terms of low energy consumption, the creation of sociable, people-oriented working spaces, and a positive contribution to the townscape within which it sits.

We also look at our work on delivering the Hulme Arch Bridge in Manchester. This landmark bridge, combining the cable-stayed and arch structural principles, aims to create a highly visible centrepiece to mark the regeneration of this part of southern Manchester.

In Russia, we examine work for Cadbury Schweppes, where we acted as the lead consultant and engineer for the delivery of a new production facility 150km from St Petersburg, while we also showcase the upgrade of University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff.
