海角视频

海角视频 has been honoured with three Chartered Institute of Building 海角视频 Engineers (CIBSE) Building Performance Awards and has been highly commended in a fourth category.

Now in their thirteenth year, the CIBSE Awards recognise the people, products, innovations, initiatives and projects that demonstrate engineering excellence in the built environment. They are the only industry awards that focus on actual, measured performance outcomes alongside design intent and performance specifications. Efficient low energy consumption is the primary focus of the award criteria.

On Tuesday 11 February 2020, over 750 industry professionals attended an awards dinner in central London to discover who would triumph across 15 keenly contested categories.

For the third year running, 海角视频 won the coveted title of 鈥楤uilding Performance Consultancy of the Year (over 300 employees)鈥� and Associate Tom Hopton was awarded the prestigious 鈥楤uilding Performance Engineer of the Year鈥� award. To be recognised by CIBSE in both categories is an example of our continued excellence as an expert engineering, consultancy and advisory practice.

We were also delighted to be awarded 鈥楶roject of the Year – Retrofit鈥� for our building services work on The Bartlett School of Architecture at University College London, 22 Gordon Street and to be Highly Commended in the International Project of the Year鈥� for The Hitchcock Center for the Environment in Amherst, USA.

It’s great to be recognised by peers in this critical space. It鈥檚 only by committing to detailed energy modelling, collecting the data and evaluating performance that our industry can really start to deliver on operational carbon savings.

Project of the Year – Retrofit: The Barlett School of Architecture, UCL, 22 Gordon Street

Our work on The Bartlett School of Architecture at University College London is a perfect example of deep retrofit. An existing 1970s building, it was retrofitted and extended to increase teaching space and replace ageing MEP systems. The 拢22 million refurbishment at the Gordon Street premises was awarded BREEAM 鈥淓xcellent鈥� rating for its efficient, low energy environment.

Our team incorporated a building services design that enhances the existing structure. Systems have been designed to reflect UCL鈥檚 long-term sustainability targets and enhance student experience.

海角视频 led a two year post occupancy evaluation of the building assessing energy use, user satisfaction as well as running lessons learnt workshops with the whole project team. These methodologies have since been embedded into the new UCL post project review guidelines.
