Project Overview
Waterhouse Gardens is a major residential regeneration project in Manchester, developed by Domis Construction. The development includes multiple high-rise towers and is one of the largest of its kind in the city, contributing significantly to the transformation of the urban landscape. With a focus on modern living, sustainability, and community integration, the project required a vertical access solution that could keep pace with its ambitious construction goals.
Client: Domis Construction
Segment: High-rise residential
Status: Ongoing
Location: Manchester, United Kingdom
Challenge
The project’s scale and complexity demanded a hoisting system that could serve multiple towers simultaneously while ensuring safety, speed, and reliability. The site layout required compact equipment with high capacity and minimal disruption to surrounding infrastructure. Efficient vertical logistics were essential to maintain construction momentum and meet delivery targets.
RAXTAR Solution
RAXTAR provided a combination of seven RX SMART Series hoists, including:
These hoists were selected for their modular design, quiet operation, and advanced RX Control system. The SMART Series is ideal for high-rise residential construction, offering smooth and safe transport of personnel and materials. The hoists were strategically deployed to serve the 26-story towers, ensuring optimal access and minimal wait times.
Outcome
The RAXTAR hoisting solution has enabled Domis Construction to maintain a high construction pace while ensuring safety and efficiency on-site. The combination of owned and rented hoists provided flexibility and scalability, supporting the evolving needs of the project. Waterhouse Gardens stands as a strong example of how smart vertical access can drive success in large-scale urban developments.
