University of Toronto Modular Building Design

University of Toronto has decided to take an important step in the advancement of architectural discourse, by building a new two-storey office facility located at the entry to the campus from prefabricated modular buildings to achieve design excellence.

The building will be comprised of 19 modules dimensioned to enable their transport by semi-trailer on public roads to the site, and to be subsequently dropped into position by crane.  Modules will be delivered complete with interior partitions, and exterior cladding.  Vortex Fire was the building code consultant for the project including assessment of SPS floor system.
