IT Office Remodeling – 6-Story Building
This project includes comprehensive mechanical and electrical engineering design services for the remodeling of a 6-story IT office building totaling 170,000 square feet. The work supports architectural revisions and addresses code compliance, energy efficiency, acoustic comfort, and modern system integration. All deliverables are prepared for plan check approval and construction execution
- System Assessment: Evaluate existing HVAC units and ventilation infrastructure for potential reuse or replacement.
- Demolition and Retrofit: Provide demolition plans and design new VAV systems and ductwork layouts tailored to remodeled spaces.
- Air Distribution: Design efficient air distribution layouts with attention to zoning and acoustic performance.
- IT Room HVAC: Provide a dedicated DX system to maintain controlled conditions in the IT/server room.
- Exhaust Design: Develop code-compliant exhaust systems for remodeled areas, including restrooms and other enclosed spaces.
- Ventilation Compliance: Ensure compliance with California ventilation code requirements based on the updated floor plan.
- Controls: Design control systems for HVAC equipment including DDC zoning, temperature reset, occupancy scheduling, and integration with the building management system (BMS).
- Energy Compliance: Ensure HVAC systems meet California Title 24 energy requirements using load calculations, high-efficiency equipment, and energy-saving control strategies.
- Documentation: Deliver complete mechanical plans, equipment schedules, control diagrams, and technical details.
- System Assessment: Review existing electrical service, panel capacities, and feeder sizing; plan upgrades where necessary.
- Power Distribution: Provide a revised power plan based on demolition and new architectural layout, including new panelboard circuits.
- Lighting Design: Design new lighting layouts with fixture selection and perform photometric calculations for interior and exterior areas.
- Emergency Lighting: Provide compliant emergency lighting layouts, including egress lighting and supporting photometry.
- Panel Schedules and Diagrams: Update panel schedules, load summaries, and provide an updated single-line diagram.
- Controls: Provide lighting control design including automated time-based control, occupancy sensors, daylighting, and Title 24-compliant zoning.
- Energy Compliance: Ensure lighting and power systems meet California Title 24 energy standards, with LPD analysis, automated controls, and documentation prepared using EnergyPro.
