Building Systems

Building Systems are required to balance preservation objectives with interior systems, such as HVAC, electrical, plumbing, structural systems, information and communication technologies, and conveyance systems. Since new mechanical and other related systems, such as electrical and fire suppression, can use up to 10% of a building's square footage and 30%-40% of an overall rehabilitation budget, decisions must be made in a systematic and coordinated manner. M.Arch Architects services a building's integrity and retains as much of the original building fabric as possible. We considers building systems during initial project design and periodic upgrades to avoid the incremental loss of integrity.

 

M.Arch Architects constructs and integrates plumbing and structural systems that eliminated future construction delays that were certain to cause site conflict.
