Renovation of an educational facility in Gilroy, California. Completed plans call for the renovation of a educational facility.

The construction cost of the Project is currently estimated to be approximately $2,500,000. The Student Center HVAC Project consists of the decommissioning and abandonment of the existing mechanical system and associated ductwork, including selective demolition of ceilings and walls as required to facilitate access. The project provides for the installation of a new air handling unit (AHU) with heating and cooling located at grade in the west courtyard, ducted through new exterior wall penetrations into the storage room adjacent to the kitchen to serve the building. An additive option is included for a supplemental make-up air unit above the kitchen to enhance system control and accommodate future kitchen hood replacement. The scope reflects a value-engineered approach consistent with the current mechanical budget and will require associated seismic upgrades and code compliance for impacted areas north of Gridline D due to new wall penetrations. Work also includes patch-back of affected finishes and roofing, integration with existing HVAC and lighting controls to the extent feasible, provision of new access hatches for maintenance, and optional lighting upgrades as required to meet current energy efficiency standards. This project involves replacing the existing HVAC system in the north sector of the Student Center Building. The scope includes decommissioning the old system, installing a new air handling unit with heating and cooling capacity in the west courtyard, and routing new ductwork through the building's exterior wall. The work requires necessary seismic upgrades for code compliance, followed by the restoration of all affected walls, ceilings, and roofing. The result will be a reliable, state-of-the-art climate control system integrated with existing building controls to serve the Student Center for years to come. In addition to the HVAC improvements, the project includes miscellaneous architectural items such as removal of display cases, patch and paint existing walls, adding acoustical tiles, installation of closure to cafeteria serving area.
