School of Visual Arts Data Center

The School of Visual Arts (SVA) is a university specializing in design and applied arts. SVA has recently upgraded their digital infrastructure by implementing a new data center to support their undergrad and graduate departments. To accommodate the new equipment, a new room was constructed, complete with dedicated computer room air conditioning system, pre-action sprinkler system and dedicated electrical feed. Due to the capacity of the new mechanical system, Energy Code Commissioning is required. SVA has retained EPIC to provide special/progress inspections and commissioning services for this project.
