Project Tendering
Designed To a Tee
Initial Consultation & Project Planning
Assessment
Client Consultation: The design-build contractor meets with the client to understand their specific needs, goals, and budget for the HVAC system.
Site Evaluation: Conducting a thorough site evaluation to gather data on the building’s layout, existing systems, and environmental conditions.
Preliminary Design
Conceptual Design: Developing initial design concepts that outline the basic approach to the HVAC system, including potential equipment, zoning, and control strategies.
Feasibility Studies: Performing feasibility studies to assess the practicality and cost-effectiveness of different design options.
Design Phase
Detailed Design
Load Calculations: Conducting precise load calculations to determine the heating and cooling requirements for different areas of the building.
System Selection: Choosing the appropriate HVAC equipment (e.g., chillers, boilers, heat pumps) based on load calculations, efficiency goals, and client preferences.
Duct and Piping Design: Designing the ductwork and piping layouts to ensure efficient air and fluid distribution throughout the building.
Control Systems: Designing the control systems, including thermostats, sensors, and building automation systems (BAS), to manage the HVAC operations efficiently.
Engineering Drawings
Blueprints: Creating detailed blueprints and schematics that illustrate the layout of HVAC components, ductwork, piping, and control systems.
Specifications: Developing detailed specifications for all equipment and materials to be used in the project.
Construction Phase
Procurement & Scheduling
Material Ordering: Ordering the necessary HVAC equipment, ductwork, and other materials specified in the design.
Project Scheduling: Creating a detailed project schedule that outlines the sequence of construction activities and milestones.
Installation
Equipment Installation: Installing HVAC units such as furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, and ventilation systems in accordance with the design.
