Center for Access and Student Services<\/h3>\n

Watford Engineering provided mechanical, plumbing, and fire sprinkler design services for the new three-story Center for Access and Student Services building, including basement mechanical spaces. The facility houses multiple student services departments and was designed to connect to the campus central heating and cooling plant utilizing steam and chilled water distribution.<\/p>\n

The HVAC systems include variable air volume central station air handling units serving shut-off terminal units with reheat. Plumbing systems were designed with low water consumption commercial-grade fixtures, domestic water distribution, sanitary waste and vent systems, and natural gas service. Fire protection design included wet-pipe sprinkler systems throughout the building, dry-pipe systems serving exterior covered areas, and standpipes located in each stairwell.<\/p>\n
