Higher Education  -  SPELMAN COLLEGE STUDENT HOUSING, DINING AND PARKING DECK



SPELMAN COLLEGE STUDENT HOUSING, DINING AND PARKING DECK Project Overview

Spelman College student housing includes 110 apartment units with a total of 305 bed spaces. There are also five visitor suites. The dining hall includes a full service kitchen, serving areas and public seating for 175 students. There is also a private dining area complete with pre-function space and 30 person seating for special events.  The parking deck provides covered parking for approximately 100 spaces.

The building structure consists of a relatively new design system, Diversakore.

The lightweight structure helps minimize foundation sizes and costs, while the quick erection time reduces the overall project schedule.
