OBJECTIVES
To plan, install, and start state-of-the-art mechanical/plumbing systems in a new, 335,000- sf building, while achieving high levels of energy efficiency and reducing operating costs.
SOLUTIONS
By combining pre-construction design assistance, complete mechanical/plumbing construction, and full startup services, EMCOR’s Trautman & Shreve brought state-ofthe- art HVAC reliability and LEED gold energy efficiency to this new, 17-story tower in downtown Denver.
The company’s professionals generated three-dimensional computer-aided design construction documents and applied expert project delivery skills to coordinate their work with other contractors, and keep construction on schedule and on budget. They also worked closely with the general contractor from the start to ensure compliance with the rigorous LEED gold construction and commissioning requirements. From project design through testing and balancing the HVAC systems, the general contractor and, ultimately, the client benefitted from obtaining such a broad array of work from a single source.
