b"BY THE NUMBERSWe worked with the client to design and This multi-phase project included upgrades to the Central Plant featuring a centrallyimplement a converged network that allows the controlled, completely automated state-of- various building systems to communicate and share the-art system with total demand control.information on a single network. Data is massed in As the buildings require additional heatinga single location and can be shared with anyone or or cooling, the system automatically reacts.anything. The secure network set up in conjunction with the client's IT team increases efficiency, reduces 1,200 TONS implementation costs, reduces downtime and increases future OF VARIABLE SPEEDflexibility. This converged network has now become the backbone MAGNETIC-BEARING CHILLERS of this smart building and can be expanded on in the future. Our specialized Intelligent Building team combined the data 100 TONS and functionality of the building system within an Integrated Automation System (IAS), which is essentially the programmable OF VARIABLE SPEED HEATbrain of the building.

This project is the first fully Intelligent Building in OF VARIABLE FLOWManitoba and uses Fault Detection and Diagnostics CONDENSING BOILERS (FDD) technology to significantly reduce costs and improve 36,000 CFM operational efficiency. FDD incorporates a customized, building-specific library of fault rules that are used to OF DEMAND-CONTROLLEDpredict equipment failures and advise personnel of HEAT RECOVERY VENTILATION preventive actions. NNOVATION: INNOVATIVEIOCCUPANCY COMFORTBenefits for the Occupant: Occupant wellness is greatly improved via new daylight harvesting lighting, ASHRAE 55-compliant comfort systems, reduced background noise and staff demand-controlled ventilation to ventilate when occupied.Benefits for the Owner/Operator: The single-pane glass platform uses a Unified User Interface (UUI), giving facility managers access to historical and real-time data, which can be used to identify faults, trends and patterns in energy and equipment usage and identify opportunities for improved performance.BUILDING A BETTER EXPERIENCE BOCKSTAEL.COMIssue 4 Winter Edition 2021 BUILD MANITOBA 35"
