Cozad Public Schools -Boiler Room Mechanical Revisions

Project Description

Client: Cozad Public Schools
Location: Cozad, NE
Schedule:  May 2018 – August 2018
General Contractor:  Snell Services
Subcontract Sum: $255,500

Project Summary:  A difficult boiler changeout project in a short amount of time. The original drawings from 1960 were not very accurate, so we sent in our 3D laser scanner and stitched together a point cloud of the existing mechanical room to work from in a 3D model. We were able to identify what 20 different pipes served which rooms and made a plan to systematically demolish the existing equipment and laid out exactly where all the new equipment, their pads and clevis hangers for the pipe and inline mounted equipment with a robotic total station.  With the point cloud captured we were able to plan the work tasks & schedule a little more accurately with other contractors. We tapped into the system for a planned brief shutdown causing minimal disruption to the facility and the new system was up and running in no time. We had a great working relationship with the engineer for this project, sharing information about existing conditions that would have otherwise gone unnoticed and collaborated together to reach solutions that were satisfactory to the owners.

Adams Middle School

Project Description

Client:   Adams Middle School
Location:   North Platte, NE
Surface Area: 1596 FT2
Year Completed: July 2017
Architect:   Joseph R. Hewgley & Associates, Inc.
Contract Amount: $181,000

A quick HVAC upgrade/retrofit while school was not in session for the summer. Demolition of the existing 2 cell cooling tower, condenser pump and chilled water pump and replaced with newer and more efficient equipment. To complete this project in such a short amount of time, we implemented our laser scanner to generate a 3-D model of the Mechanical Room and all existing equipment and conditions. From that scanned point-cloud model we were able to layout the location for the steel frame supporting the new cooling tower on the roof as well as all the new equipment, the pads supporting the new equipment and all roof penetrations with our Trimble Robotic Total Station. With the 3-D model and the tight schedule we were able to determine the best possible spatial coordination to avoid running into any existing equipment, conduit or piping that was to remain and determined a route for the new piping in a manner that allowed us to utilize a majority of the existing pipe hangers. 90% of the piping was prefabricated off-site at our Fab Shop. This method of project delivery increases efficiency, eradicates confusion, and cuts layout time and installation time to a fraction of what it would take with traditional methods.
