Tenant Improvement 88,000 SF

This project was for complete renovation of the 1966 Stauffer Science Building at Whittier College and included seismic and accessibility upgrades, as well as new utility infrastructure and equipment. The long, raised-box form of the existing building was re-appropriated to create a more eye- catching exterior and improve the building’s relationship to the campus. Facing the campus quad, a nearly continuous glass facade is interrupted by terracotta pop-outs that serve as cross-disciplinary break- out alcoves. Building consists of Labs and classrooms, all which have been reconfigured featuring at least one glass wall, revealing student endeavors. Open study spaces are located throughout the building creating spaces for students to have meaningful interactions beyond the classroom. There is a two-story lobby with a staircase in the shape of a DNA helix providing a route up to the campus proper and a fifth- floor ‘penthouse’ providing inspiring views, unique classroom environments, and dedicated terrace space for the astronomy program’s telescopes The mechanical for the project consisted of a chilled water system with hot water reheat and custom air-handling units with variable frequency drives for a variable air volume (VAV) system. In addition, VAV fume hood exhaust systems with demand response were provided for maximum energy efficiency.

Tenant Improvement 75,000 SF

The project consisted primarily of retrofit of mechanical systems for two science buildings of nearly 75,000 SF. The buildings are mostly science classrooms of which numerous classrooms had several laboratory fume hoods. The buildings were under extreme negative air pressures resulting in adverse interior conditions, issues with doors opening and closing, and posing potential hazards. CSUN believed the proper solution was going to be additional make up air handling units. Such a solution would have been costly, disruptive, and operationally expensive. S&K studied existing plans and operational characteristics, and our findings were that make up air capacity was more than adequate, but it was not being controlled or operated correctly. Further investigation determined that the existing pneumatic control systems had been seriously damaged by the 1994 Northridge earthquake. The most cost effective solution was to install a new Direct Digital Control (DDC) system. S&K designed the new DDC system, and the problems were solved. In addition to resolving the pressurization problems, the new DDC system also increased occupant comfort and realized substantial energy savings.

ALFATECH SUSTAINABLITY

SUSTAINABILITY STUDIO AlfaTech’s Sustainability Studio provides sustainable design solutions for prioritizing energy, water, and air quality. Our team brings deep MEP engineering expertise with digital skills. Our Sustainability Studio is a team of in-house experts whose purpose is to develop the most highly sustainable design strategies for each project. This multidisciplinary team assesses and designs projects with an integrated approach. Working with owners, architects, and other stakeholders, we examine every project with a comprehensive, systematic approach to map key programming targets. We establish project sustainability goals and collaboratively prioritize energy, water, and air quality requirements. We explore the latest system technologies and identify concepts most suitable to project applications. We perform life-cycle analysis, system simulations, and models that are utilized for validation. We review proposed system concepts with the project team to determine impacts and financial benefits in the earliest design stages.

AlfaTech goes beyond engineering – our suite of energy, water, and sustainability assessment services creates projects that benefit the triple bottom line – people, planet, and profit.

DESIGN APPROACH

AlfaTech maintains a commitment to sustainable design on every project. At the onset of a new project, our Sustainability Studio tea works with the client and the architect to establish and benchmark the project’s sustainability goals. Once these goals are set, we explore the latest system technologies, identify project-specific strategies available, and determine the most suited concepts to the project application. We provide preliminary studies of these systems, further validating the application. Together with the rest of the project team, we look at each system concept to determine the project impacts and financial benefits in the early stages of design.

SUSTAINABILITY IS A CORNERSTONE OF OUR PRACTICE

We follow a holistic approach to meet project expectations in all dimensions. Providing sustainable design is an achievement if it is also functional. Increasing efficiency is realistic when it is applicable. Meeting the project budget is possible when the design is constructible.
