From the archives: Retrofit Vendors Dialog, MCW, EllisDon (core and shell), and PCL (interior fit-up) collaborate to deliver the LEED Gold Donadeo Innovation Centre for Engineering at the University of Alberta.

Mechanical highlights include the use of chilled beam systems as part of the mechanical ventilation system, fan array technology, complete integration with building management systems controlling normal and off hour heating/cooling requirements, VFD’s for all motor operated equipment, and water conserving plumbing fixtures. Electrical includes use of LED fixtures throughout the building, day light harvesting strategies on all floors, occupancy sensors in offices and boardrooms, and wireless connectivity throughout the work. 

MCW was awarded a Consulting Engineers of Alberta Showcase Award for Excellence in Building Engineering.
