This project included the full ‘Design and Build’ of brand new LTHW heating and domestic water plant services to the toilet cores of a fully refurbished 10 storey office building in the heart of the City of London.
The initial 26-week design period was utilised for feasibility studies/design proposals, plant and distribution calculations, including technical submissions and schematic/distribution drawings for approval/sign off by the MEP Consulting Engineers. Working closely with all parties, the design changed and progressed from the initial client liaison and continuously throughout the project.
