Multi-Housing Residences
When housing large numbers of people, the proper regulation of air and water temperature, as well as equipment noise and vibration, are key. The design of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems must be carefully planned and documented. We’ve equipped several large university residence halls with the systems needed to help students live and study in comfort.
