This project provides a new home for the Duke University Pratt School of Engineering’s education, research and entrepreneurship initiatives by bringing together faculty and students from various departments.
Situated in the heart of campus, the 176,000-sq-ft predominantly brick and glass double-tower structure is more than twice the size of the previous home of the College of Business.
Completed in just 13 months, this 94,000-sq-ft structural-steel high-bay hangar facility was built on a 232-acre site at the Brookley Aeroplex in Mobile, Ala., to enable aircraft manufacturer Airbus to better serve its U.S. airline clients.
To reduce the university’s energy costs while avoiding the capital expenditures needed to expand the existing energy plant’s cooling capacity, the design and construction team delivered a 3.5-million-gallon chilled water, thermal energy storage tank in May 2020.
The existing 66,700-sq-ft, 1970s-era office building provided an ideal opportunity for ASHRAE to apply its own building standards to transform a conventional structure into a net-zero energy building, thereby showcasing sustainability in action.
This stunning five-story repository for Tennessee’s collection of books and public/historic records replaces the oldest archives building in the nation and includes three stories dedicated to the library and archives, one level of below-grade parking and a single-story mechanical penthouse.
With a strong commitment to supporting the local community throughout the project, a joint venture of Skanska USA and Holt Brothers delivered a nearly 95,000-sq-ft renovation and addition to a major public building in Durham, N.C., giving it a new sense of prominence.
