Meyer Building - Air Handler Replacement:
This project involves the design of two air-handling systems to serve both the building office and laboratory functions. The unit serving the laboratory spaces will be designed for 100% outside air. Each unit shall be partially capable of backing up the other during system failure.
The design includes a new exhaust fan to convert laboratory return air system to 100% outside air. All design work will be phased, with a maximum downtime of two (2) days. The adequacy of chilled water, steam and electrical to service systems will also be analyzed. Where possible the new systems shall employ green and energy efficient strategies such as heat recovery for 100% outside air system and CO2 dynamic reset control for office areas.
Local Law 26/04 Compliance:
This project involved surveying each floor of six (6) Class E buildings (approximately 371,271 SF) and fifty-four (54) Class G buildings to determine locations of existing exit signs and the proper power connection of the exit lights. If the signage was not code compliant, construction documents were prepared indicating the need for new exit signs and the removal of damaged or unnecessary exit signs.
