Project Outcomes

Our team kept up with the fast pace of the project while implementing piping distribution solutions that relieved congestion within the suites and future serviceability. We assisted in developing new standards for energy transfer station installations, which included our team’s VDC solutions with 3D room scans, Revit Design for stress calculations and weld maps for fabrication and paperwork submission processes. We successfully worked with the client on cost strategies through value engineering and alternate solutions and worked with the mechanical engineer to rework distribution and design optimization.

“We are proud to be a part of True Mechanical’s team and their many successful projects.”
