Understanding user experiences and seeking out unexpected learning opportunities that occur “off the record” can guide architectural solutions and create workplaces that are as human as they are high-tech.
When building owners want their building systems to be designed for resiliency, the discussion between the owner and the engineers typically includes redundancy and temporary HVAC systems that can support all building HVAC systems or portions thereof.
Improving efficiency, increasing energy savings, and reducing maintenance in a top-rated facility
February 15, 2021
NextDC is committed to sustainability and renewable energy, so it was no surprise when the M1 data center received a 4.5-star rating from National Australian Built Environment Rating Systems (NABERS) in 2016 for incredible building performance.
High-density environments require well-devised plans for heat mitigation during often-overlooked short interruptions to avoid getting burned — literally and figuratively speaking.
The RFP process combines distinct phases, including obtaining nondisclosure agreements, preparing the RFP document, distributing RFPs to the selected candidates, and answering questions about project requirements.
After years of chasing the attractive efficiency numbers offered by water-based evaporative systems, many data center providers are giving air-cooled chillers a second look.
It’s no secret that data centers require a lot of energy. The main driver of data center design engineers’ work is to provide energy-efficient, reliable, and cost-competitive HVAC systems.
