Training Centre for Automotive Vehicle​

With MVN’s expertise in system integration, this 15,000 SF auto training center was equipped with mechanical, electrical, and plumbing solutions tailored to support both instructional spaces and specialized training areas. The design emphasized efficiency, compliance, and adaptability, ensuring reliable performance and a comfortable environment for students, instructors, and facility operations.

Mechanical Design

The facility was served through rooftop units with a VVT system, providing efficient heating and cooling across classrooms, labs, and training bays. Acoustic liners were incorporated into ductwork to minimize noise and maintain clear communication during instruction. Each classroom was equipped with dedicated controls, allowing precise temperature management and enhancing comfort for varied training activities.

Electrical Design

Electrical infrastructure was upgraded with new lighting and controls throughout the space, ensuring safe illumination and flexibility for instructional settings. Receptacles were strategically distributed to support training equipment, technology, and HVAC systems, while new panels were added to strengthen power distribution and provide adaptability for future expansion.

Plumbing Design

Plumbing systems addressed both industrial waste and new restroom facilities, ensuring code compliance and durability. Routing was coordinated for efficient water distribution and reliable waste management to support training operations.

The mechanical systems were tailored to the building’s mixed‑use operations. Key design elements include:

  • First‑floor kitchen exhaust terminated with a wall‑mounted blast fan, supported by a makeup air unit located outside the building.
  • First‑floor retail space served by a fan coil unit paired with a gas‑fired furnace.
  • Second‑floor retail tenant similarly equipped with a dedicated fan coil and furnace system.
  • Each dwelling unit on upper levels provided with its own fan coil unit for independent comfort control.
  • Condensing units strategically located at grade level outside the building for efficient operation and service accessibility.

Electrical systems were designed to meet the varied needs of restaurant, retail, and residential spaces. Key highlights:

  • Existing services leveraged with new panels provided as required to support tenant improvements.
  • Kitchen areas on the first level equipped with GFI outlets for safety compliance.
  • Retail and dwelling units fitted with outlets in full compliance with code.
  • Lighting design incorporated aesthetic round fixtures, coordinated with the architect’s reflected ceiling plan (RCP).
  • Lighting ensures both functionality and visual appeal across all restaurant, retail, and residential spaces.

The plumbing design presented unique challenges due to the absence of an external grease interceptor:

  • below‑floor grease interceptor engineered to serve the basement restaurant space — meeting all regulatory and operational requirements.
  • Each floor equipped with a gas‑fired water heater to provide reliable hot water service across residential and retail tenants.
  • System designed for efficiency, compliance, and long‑term durability throughout the building’s mixed occupancies.
