海角视频 was engaged to provide expert consultancy around building services engineering (MEP).

We designed systems to support a low energy building, coupled with the design of a Building Management System (BMS) that could gather and analyse energy trends.

Challenge

The building, developed by Lodha Group, is constructed within a busy city centre location. It had to be constructed within the constraints of tight timelines and with a desire from the client to surpass the standards for green design while also delivering significant energy savings in support of their LEED Platinum ambition. 海角视频 was engaged to provide expert consultancy around building services engineering (MEP).

A reenforced concrete core with composite decking was chosen 鈥� a relatively new concept in the context of India鈥檚 commercial property market. As a practice we had the ability to have conversations with our international teams in Hong Kong, London and New York to gather 鈥榣essons learned鈥� in composite decking in terms of MEP complexities.

Solution

The 海角视频 team was able to apply this knowledge in working closely with the wider design team, helping to inform the plans for core wall openings and deck openings to facilitate MEP transfers.

The tower incorporates state-of-the-art technology and sustainable building systems, while offering tenants flexible, column-free spaces with a range of amenities.

We provided a broad range of building services engineering solutions that will be relevant to a Class A office. Our workflows involved testing many alternative ideas to arrive at systems that would provide flexibility for the future growth of tenants. 

Our designers provided systems within the building to support a low energy building, helping to minimise its operational carbon footprint, coupled with the design of a Building Management System (BMS) that could gather and analyse energy trends to provide dynamic feedback to stakeholders as to how the building is performing and where it can be optimised.

Value

The building in the heart of the business capital of India, is one of the standout mixed use developments in the whole of the sub-continent. The project exemplifies 海角视频鈥檚 commitment to ensuring such landmarks have a robust and elegant MEP system based upon a carefully balanced approach to the principles of sustainability, efficiency, economy and innovation.

Certified as LEED-Platinum and as the largest office building powered entirely by renewable energy in India, One Lodha Place doesn鈥檛 just meet the standards for green design it surpasses them.

Having the ability to solve local problems with international experience is invaluable. We deliver flexible solutions with local teams who are ready to disseminate this wider knowledge and apply our broad experience of working on large scale projects of this nature.
