UBER MB 1 & 2 MISSION BAY HEADQUARTERS
San Francisco, CA
AlfaTech is currently involved in this Uber’s new San Francisco presence which is a new 420,000 square-foot, ground up office building in the Mission Bay area in San Francisco. Our scope of work includes mechanical, electrical, plumbing, technology, security, and sustainability services. AlfaTech assisted the architectural design team with optimizing performance by assessing various utility, façade and wind studies. The project is designed as an innovative, ultra- high performance building that includes a façade that responds to programmatic needs, an under floor air distribution system, a “winter garden” which acts as the main social space incorporating natural ventilation, and a proposed geothermal system to substantially reduce cooling equipment needs. AlfaTech has been providing MEP Engineering and Technology services for this client in the US and Globally for ten sites, including the new corporate headquarters in San Francisco. This is a state of the art new campus with over 420k SF of offices, a full kitchen and cafeteria. The project will include evaluation of all available sustainability features. Sustainability goals: • Significant reduction of building energy cooling needs by the use of geothermal exchange systems • Aggressive rainwater capture and retention • Natural ventilation for main atrium social areas, creating a pleasant, open experience for employees and visitors • Maximize use of day lighting to optimize workspace quality

LENNAR CANDLESTI CK POINT & HUNTER’S POINT MASTER PLAN San Francisco, CA
The Candlestick Point and Hunter Point Shipyard is a 702-acre development that has the potential to bring most dynamic companies into the area and develop whole communities. This area will house R&D facilities, commercial spaces, multi- use buildings and retail spaces. Parks, trails, and open spaces will be additional features that will attract and enhance the community. The new development will add over 10,000 new residential units in the form of condominiums and low-, mid- and high-rise buildings. There will be over a million square feet of commercial space made available, over three million square feet for Research and Development, as well as over 300,000 square feet of property devoted to community activities. AlfaTech views this holistic approach to community development as an opportunity for Lennar Urban to be at the vanguard of urban design by creating a community infrastructure focused on environmental sustainability, technology, and self- sustaining. This means taking advantage of existing technologies to generate energy with the lowest environmental impact. We conducted a series of sustainable mechanical studies in a master plan scale to help the owners understand the options available to explore the feasibility of Net Zero energy for the new development. Proposed strategies involve:
Geothermal heat rejection systems

BENTLY HERITAGE DISTILLERY
Minden, NV
MILL BUILDING Type: Manufacturing, Retail Size: 14,700 SF
Bently Heritage Distillery developed the Old Mill District into a state-of-the-art distillery for high grade whisky and spirits. The Mill Building, built in 1908, is the main production facility for fine whiskey.
The structure consists of four, 24’ diameter by 50’ high steel plate silos as well as a 3 stories/ loft/ low basement unreinforced brick masonry structure. The first floor of each distilling silos were conjoined by removing portions of the skin of each silo. Distilling equipment is arranged vertically to enable a gravity fed distilling process. The brick structure contains the private and public tastings rooms and retail spaces. Portions of the existing floors were removed to create multiple height spaces.
CREAMERY BUILDING Type: Manufacturing, Retail Size: 15,000 SF
Bently Heritage Distillery developed the Old Mill District into a state-of-the-art distillery for high grade whisky and spirits. The existing Creamery Building was demolished with the exception of the historic brick façade.
