The Grand Central Tech Hub is a next-generation laboratory and collaborative incubator designed for high-growth robotics, AI, and biotechnology enterprises. Converted from a historical industrial facility in the Innovation Zone, the project required complex structural seismic retrofitting while inserting state-of-the-art MEP systems, cleanrooms, and data center infrastructure.
Preserving the historical external masonry facade while reinforcing the interior with heavy seismic steel bracings and installing high-capacity HVAC and redundant power grids.
AKR engineers implemented carbon-fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) and buckling-restrained braced frames (BRBF), combined with rooftop chilled beam cooling and N+1 redundant UPS backup generators.
From urban high-rises to luxury residential estates, our multidisciplinary team brings your vision into reality.
