Who says an industrial building can't be a great place to work?
Through more than 80,000 square feet of carefully planned office, warehouse, and maintenance shop space, Westshore Terminals now has an attractive yet functional base of operations in Delta. This development also signaled a significant reinvestment and commitment to supporting Canadian coal mines, and a bright future for the terminal.
Smith + Andersen was engaged as the electrical and communications consultant for the project.
The electrical scope included providing new service from the existing substation on site. In order to accommodate heavy machinery service equipment located in the engine re-build and welding shop, new electrical distribution, process controls, and connections were required. As the central commercial and industrial computing hub for the terminal, Westshore Terminals required two separate server rooms – one dedicated to the commercial side and the other dedicated to the industrial side.
LED lighting was used throughout the facility and tied to a lighting control system, aiding in the reduction of energy use and optimization of occupant comfort. The port is also located along the Canadian border, requiring lighting quality which meets with the necessary security and surveillance standards.
