Lighting Depth

 

The lighting depth will consist on redesigning of the lighting schematics in four building spaces:

     The Façade

     The Lobby

     The Open Gallery

     The Rooftop space (Pool Area)

 

The overall concept its called Organic Flow and will connect all the spaces together and tied them with its surrounding following the different representations of water in Nature; which properly links with Bay Harbor Island its nature and connection with water. Event though all the spaces will be connected, they will all have individual personalities and characteristics to reinforce the activities that are done on each one.

 

Electrical Depth

 

The proposed electrical depth will study multiple alternative options to the current electric system in order to identify if there is room for improvement. The options go from the possible usage of a 480/277 V system for some of the larger loads, the use of aluminum and copper and which is a more viable option and finally the inclusion of PV Panels in some areas to promote energy savings.

 

Construction Management  Breadth

 

The first breadth topic will focus on the cost and schedule analysis of the electrical depth study. The cost analysis will be performed using RSmeans and the electrical schedule will be re-worked with the new system. A study will be done to see if the new schedule effects the critical path.  

 

Structural Breadth

 

The second breadth topic will focus on the structural addition of a steel deck to expand the area of the Roof Deck. This will be implemented to repurpose the space into an outdoor lounge for small parties and cocktails at night. The structural process will go from determinate the loads, to size the steel deck and then the beams, girders and columns.

Note: While great efforts have been taken to provide accurate and complete information on the pages of CPEP, please be aware that the information contained herewith is considered a work‐in‐progress for this thesis project. Modifications and changes related to the original building designs and construction methodologies for this senior thesis project are solely the interpretation of Abraham Benguigui. Changes and discrepancies in no way imply that the original design contained errors or was flawed. Differing assumptions, code references, requirements, and methodologies have been incorporated into this thesis project; therefore, investigation results may vary from the original design.
