Introduction:
This contract involved the refurbishment of three buildings within the Universities campus namely, Civil Engineering, Harrison Hughes/Walker Building and the Mechanical Engineering Building. All buildings receiving total refurbishment to a major part of their departments with some works carried out alongside occupied facilities.
Mechanical:
The total re-installation of HTHW fed LTHW systems, DH&CWS, compressed air systems, process water and ventilation systems, tempered supply and extract systems, comfort cooling, above ground public health drainage, chemical drainage, fume extraction, dry riser installation and building management systems.
Installation of these systems have been interfaced with existing campus frameworks, including the coded welding of the HTHW into the existing district wide heating system. Our works have been co-ordinated with University management and design teams to enable the day to day teaching facilities to continue un-interrupted.
Electrical:
Essentially the electrical infrastructure was stripped back and a total reconfiguration of all services was installed to meet the requirements of the new design usage. This included the following disciplines, General & Emergency lighting, sub-mains and distribution, Fire Alarm, Telecoms & Data, Door access and CCTV network.
A&B worked closely with the design team and client throughout the project to ensure the most efficient means of service installation given the factors associated with such a large scale refurbishment.
