CARINDALE SHOPPING CENTRE

Another NDY project that I took charge of was mechanical services for a very large multi-level mall in suburban Brisbane: Carindale Regional Shopping Centre Redevelopment. I provided site surveys of existing plant and developed a schematic design for extensive expansion of the shopping center. With mentorship from senior engineer Russell Brothers I convinced the architect to avoid the direct solar load associated with horizontal skylights. We won the consultancy services and I subsequently led design development and contract documentation of HVAC. With the assistance of Eddie Groves we implemented carbon monoxide monitoring process-control of carpark ventilation systems to a speed controlled system to reduce energy costs while maintaining safety of air quality.
