The mechanical design included provisions for separate in-apartment PTAC units, exhaust systems for in-apartment washrooms and stoves, central make-up air units, and plumbing layouts for washrooms and kitchens. The sprinkler design incorporated head layouts to accommodate bulkheads, standpipe design, and fire pump design to address existing water pressure challenges. The electrical scope encompassed interior and exterior lighting design, fire alarm systems, and general power distribution.
