Athletes Village, Stratford, London

Sisk have been appointed as Principal Contractor for the development of Plots N09 and N10 on the Athletes Village Project.

Plots N09 and N10 are 12 and 10 storeys in height respectively, with both buildings combined providing 401 Apartments and 2,290 beds which will be completed in phase 1 to provide Athlete accommodation during the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic games.  Phase 2 will commence in November 2012 and will include kitchen retro-fit works in preparation for handover and sale/lease of the apartments.

The main structures of both buildings have adopted innovative engineering techniques to maximise on-site productivity and off-site manufacture; including 7 concrete cores which will be constructed using Slipform construction, precast concrete columns and pre-cast shear walls.  Both buildings contain green roofs and have pre-fabricated fully drained balconies.

Internally, the quality modern apartments include prefabricated bathroom pods, pre-fabricated thermal interface/utility cupboards, underfloor heating and acoustic flooring.
