HVAC providing people with greater air circulation and flow for access to cleaner, higher quality air throughout the workday. Highly-efficient mechanical, electrical, elevator and column layouts result in a highly efficient gross up factor of approximately 14%.
Symtech will be responsible for all electrical systems such as power distribution, emergency power, high efficient lighting, lighting controls, fire alarm, security system and network systems. The design-assist approach for this project allows Symtech to contribute its wide experience in the field to achieve construction efficiencies and cost savings to the overall project.
