The Trout Lawrence University project consists of 4 floors, 1^st floor is the new Trout Museum of Art, 2^nd floor is the new Lawrence University Educational Space, and the 3^rd & 4^th Floors are the Market rate apartments.  The first two floors of the building are traditional construction methods with structural steel and concrete wrapped with steel studs.  The 3^rd and 4^th floors are constructed using Volumetric Modular construction techniques.  There are elements of the project that have incorporated a modular design and construction for the apartments and exterior wall construction that can be discussed in further detail during the tour. 

This facility tour will focus on the following:

• The effectiveness, efficiencies, and the benefits of Volumetric Modular Construction (including designing for Volumetric Modular Construction).
   
• The effectiveness, efficiencies, and the benefits of panelized modular construction.
   
• The challenges and awareness with site logistics when completing projects within tight site boundaries.
