The Wakefield Street Hotel development consists a 14-storey building with 2 basement levels. The building will include 190 hotel rooms with the lower levels of the building containing the reception lobby, hotel facilities, and car parking.
A key element of this project is the client’s decision to adopt volumetric modular construction from inception. The hotel layout, design, and construction programmes are all developed to consider modular procurement. The podium structures will be conventionally built and a transfer structure at level 2 and 3 allows the structural system to transition to modular construction above the podium. Insitu lift and stair cores provide lateral stability to the building.
