CHALLENGE

The laboratory required high-quality lighting with multiple fixture types to meet functional and regulatory needs. Power supply was difficult due to limited space already occupied by other systems. In addition, office atriums required conduits to be routed along inclined structural elements, such as steel beams, adding complexity to installation and coordination.

SOLUTIONS WE PROVIDED

  • Designed precise routing strategies to deliver power in limited space
  • Coordinated conduit runs along inclined structural elements to maintain constructibility
Project Goals

Project Goals

Achieving as detailed BIM model of electrical systems as posible to ensure proper planning and coordination to minimize rework. Making sure field team has what they need and when they need it to go along the construction schedule.
