LEED® Certification LevelGold
Georgia Tech constructed a state-of-the-art basketball arena to enhance its existing coliseum, built in 1956. The new arena included 2,000 feet of mechanical piping and 2,500 feet of ductwork.
The ChallengeMcKenney’s needed to account for the existing building structure and work within limited floor space. The coliseum was a circular building, which made mechanical field locations and dimensioning a challenge.
The SolutionThe project team took a laser scan of the existing building for use in the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process and also used Trimble GPS technologies for trade layouts. All major mechanical componentswere prefabricated to limit onsite work. Local knowledge and engineering expertise were used to assist the design engineerand coordinate multiple trades.
The ResultsMcKenney’s significantly helped the customer lower its budgeted costs while maintaining system integrity and performance. By leveraging its detailing and shop capabilities, McKenney’s helped complete the project on schedule with minimal field trim or call-ins.
