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 • High performance chillers and thermal energy storage • Biodigestion system for heat recovery and energy generation

• Solar photovoltaic array for electricity generation • Rainwater and gray water capture and treatment

P R O F I L E

D E S C O Desco is an award-winning MEP consulting engineering practice with offices in the UK, Middle East and Far East. Established in the UK in 1998 the practice has the critical mass and importantly, the calibre of people, design tools and effective support systems that allow it to compete with the very best in the industry and work on projects of all sizes. The business has developed an excellent reputation for delivering a high quality, professional service, and as a result, enjoys long term relationships with an established client base. G R O U P S T R E N G T H In 2016 Desco joined a larger international engineering group. RAG Stiftung is a German based investment foundation which is developing a family of market leading consulting practices including Pell Frischmann and Dorsch Gruppe, who operate independently across a number of international markets, but have the benefits of being in a larger long-term trading group. Desco is the group’s MEP consulting engineering practice operating independently in the UK as a wholly-owned subsidiary of multi- disciplined engineering firm Pell Frischmann.

Environmental Assessment As MEP consulting engineers we understand the important contribution we can make in helping to achieve sustainable buildings. We are fully conversant with a number of environmental assessment methods and are able to advise and guide clients and design team colleagues through the various processes. We can offer: • BREEAM Accredited Professionals • BREEAM Assessors • Energy Performance Certificates (Levels 1 to 5) • LEED Advice • QSAS Green Professionals The building information models we produce are used as shared knowledge resources to support decision-making about a building project from the earliest conceptual stages, through design, construction, installation and operation. Low Carbon We employ fully qualified Low Carbon Consultants and Low Carbon Energy Assessors who perform a fundamental role on projects to minimize the energy use and carbon emissions from buildings both in design and operation. Our consultants ensure that the energy performance of both new and existing buildings meet all regulatory requirements – and in most cases exceed these targets. BIM Desco’s skilled team of engineers and CAD technicians have been working in the 3D environment for over ten years and have considerable knowledge and the practical experience necessary to produce fully coordinated computer models, incorporating detailed mechanical and electrical services data, architectural and structural information.

MEP Design Our talented team of mechanical, electrical and public health engineers work together to offer the full range of design and consultancy services from surveys and feasibility studies through to detailed design. We work on new build, refurbishment and infrastructure projects of all sizes delivering sustainable, affordable, well-designed building services across a variety of sectors. Our engineers bring broad-ranging knowledge and experience of conventional solutions, as well as fresh thinking on alternative solutions to servicing requirements to provide comfortable, functional environments. Building Physics We utilise modern complex software packages to provide the very best means of testing and shaping the building design. At the conceptual design stage we use the software to develop a ‘model’ of the building. Our experienced engineers can then interrogate this building simulation to help evaluate alternative solutions and establish the most appropriate and energy efficient design. Moving through the design process we employ technology to assist us in the detail design. Our team can deliver projects using traditional 2D drawings through to fully coordinated 3D building models with fly-through functions and clash detection analysis.
