Beetham Tower

CARILLION, BEETHAM TOWER, MANCHESTER
The Beetham Tower is a landmark building on a site at the junction of Deansgate, Great Bridgewater Street and Liverpool Road in Manchester city centre.

The new 47 storey Beetham Tower, Manchester accommodates a new 285 bedroom Hilton Hotel on the lower 22 floors, with the 23rd floor becoming a ‘Sky Bar’ offering diners stunning views across the city. Floors 25 and upwards provide 219, 1 and 2 bedroom apartments and penthouses.

The low profile, high speed hoist system commissioned for the construction of Manchester’s 171 metre 47 storey Beetham Tower enabled contractors Carillion to dramatically improve efficiency and speed of elevating materials and personnel to a height with the minimum of disruption to the construction programme.

Four high speed passenger and materials hoists each with a payload of 2800kg and an operating speed of 90 metres per minute were used and were arranged around a Common Tower. This ensured that men and materials could travel the 171mtrs from ground to level 47 in 1.9 minutes compared to 6.1 minutes for a standard hoist travelling at 28 m/min
