PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This project involved a 45,000 SF expansion for a computer data base center.
  
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS: The design called for installation of nine drycoolers installed in two rows, with piping to serve three additional coolers. Initial design called for installation of the pipe runs between the two rows which would have obstructed access for future maintenance and repairs. Working with the owner and the design engineer, an alternative layout was designed which allowed for easier access. With this design, pipe was installed underneath the units. The units were raised to accomodate the pipe. The installation was both functional and visually appealing.
