Growing up.
This project involved the addition of three new floors to the Herzberg Building Annex (INCO Centre) at Carleton University. The original INCO Centre was constructed to accommodate such a vertical expansion, and in the early 2010s the University determined that this was needed. The three-storey vertical expansion is used for offices and research space. Following the Green Globes sustainable building rating and evaluation system, the Herzberg addition achieved four Green Globes.
Smith + Andersen provided mechanical and electrical engineering for this project.
Key design features included efficient lighting fixtures, lamps and ballasts, low-flow water saving fixtures, CO2 indoor air quality monitoring, and energy use that is at least 30% more efficient than the National Energy Code. The mechanical, receptacle, and lighting loads are sub-metered to monitor and adjust their usage based on demand.
