More Projects
Dormitory: A 4-story 38,000 sq. ft. dormitory constructed in 1910 and renovated in 1960 and 2016. Both the electrical system and the HVAC system were in need of upgrade. Our design involved the upgrading of the heating only HVAC system to include mechanical cooling.
Dormitory: A 4-story 40,000 sq. ft. dormitory building in need of HVAC and electrical upgrades. The HVAC design was based on using a VRF system for ductless indoor units.
Chapel: This 100 year old building needed a new heating and cooling system. We designed the HVAC system with VRF type units.
Church: A formerly 42,000 sq. ft. box store building was renovated for use as a church. On this project we were responsible for the MEP design. The space was divided into roughly equal parts worship center, common area, classrooms, women’s, men’s, boys' and girls' restrooms, and coffee bar.
Church: This project was similar in size and design to the church above.
Condominium: A Condominium consisting of 18 floors, 13,570 sq. ft. each, and a total of 185 total apartment units. We provided an engineering assessment of the existing mechanical plumbing and electrical systems to determine if washers and dryers could be added to these systems as-is, and if not, what modifications would be required to permit such additions.
School: This was a lighting upgrade for about 40,200 sq. ft. of gymnasium space, in four gymnasiums. The design was to increase the existing lighting system efficiency to provide a more uniform lighting level while maintaining a high efficiency. The design was to utilize the existing circuits and mount new T8 type fixtures with wire guards and occupancy sensors on all fixtures. The occupancy sensors are programmed with thirty minute timers to turn the fixture off if there is no movement in the area.
Condominium: Owner requested an analysis of the electrical system in an existing 20-story, 180 unit condominium building. We provided engineering assessment of the existing electrical systems to determine if washers and dryers could be added, and if not, what modifications could be required to permit such additions.
Chapel: This project was to provide heating and cooling to an existing chapel and two sacristy rooms via air handlers and fan coils. New electrical circuits and controls were included in the design.
Dormitory: Provided complete MEP design services for this 4-story, 25,000 sq. ft. dormitory building. Fan coil units were used utilizing the campus existing central chilled water and steam boiler plants for heating and cooling. The electrical was fed from the existing switchboard inside the boiler room.
Office: This was a renovation of the lower level of a 1929 year old building that included 8 new offices that would be heated and cooled as one zone using ducted fan coil units. New electrical circuits and controls were included in the design.
