A Central District Water Plant

M cKenney’s helped revive a multi-stage project—including a central district water plant— for the Buckhead Atlanta luxury destination. THE CHALLENGE Among the many complexities involved with the project, the central water plant, ductwork and plumbing needed to serve three parcels span- ning one-and-a-half blocks on a busy urban street, each with a different completion sched- ule. This was to be accomplished using equip- ment that had been stored for over three years. THE SOLUTION To keep everything on track, McKenney’s enlisted Building Information Modeling tech- nology for virtual construction, coordination and clash detection between the trades. The team then installed the water plant along with prefabricated plumbing and underground pip- ing at various stages of the project to supply the infrastructure for the entire development. McKenney’s tested and evaluated the dormant equipment—and made updates and repairs —to return them to like-new performance. THE RESULTS Despite the change in owner and designs, staggered completion schedules and the multiple city blocks scope, the project is progressing as scheduled, on budget and is operating per design expectations.

McKenney’s helped revive a multi-stage project—including a central district water plant—
for the Buckhead Atlanta luxury destination.
THE CHALLENGEAmong the many complexities involved with the project, the central water plant, ductwork and plumbing needed to serve three parcels span-ning one-and-a-half blocks on a busy urban street, each with a different completion sched-
ule. This was to be accomplished using equip-ment that had been stored for over three years.
THE SOLUTIONTo keep everything on track, McKenney’s enlisted Building Information Modeling tech-nology for virtual construction, coordination and clash detection between the trades. The team then installed the water plant along with prefabricated plumbing and underground pip-ing at various stages of the project to supply
the infrastructure for the entire development. McKenney’s tested and evaluated the dormant equipment—and made updates and repairs —to return them to like-new performance.
THE RESULTSDespite the change in owner and designs, staggered completion schedules and the multiple city blocks scope, the project is progressing as scheduled, on budget and is operating per design expectations.
