RMH provided comprehensive electrical, mechanical, and plumbing engineering services for a new 43,000-square-foot, two-story facility supporting global scientific field missions. The building, more than twice the size of its 1970s predecessor, includes offices, electronic and wet laboratories, an ITAR-controlled warehouse, and connects to two existing aircraft hangars.

Both hangars support NCAR’s Gulfstream V and C-130 research aircraft. RMH’s electrical design scope included:

  • Upgrading Hangar A’s electrical service from 120/208V to 277/480V
  • Power and lighting design for a new locker room in Hangar B
  • Integrated lighting and controls design throughout the facility

This facility enhances NCAR’s ability to support airborne research and innovation worldwide.

At the heart of Denver, the Auraria Campus is a beacon of knowledge and opportunity, serving over 40,000 students, faculty, and staff from the Community College of Denver, Metropolitan State University of Denver, and the University of Colorado Denver. The Campus HVAC Replacement project marks a significant step towards continuing to provide a conducive environment to learn and work while enriching the local community.

RMH is the prime consultant on the project, providing mechanical and electrical engineering services focused on replacing an aging mechanical infrastructure across the campus. This project provides more efficient and reliable service for nine key buildings on campus, covering over 1.25 million square feet. Recognizing HVAC upgrades as more than maintenance, RMH aims to respond to increasingly frequent and extreme weather conditions and the need for thermal comfort. According to Natasha Hernandez, RMH’s Vice President, the project aims to create the best conditions for learning, knowledge, and productivity for all campus users.

The project’s impact will extend beyond the buildings, transforming learning environments. AHEC can count on RMH’s expertise and commitment to providing top-notch HVAC solutions for its campus stakeholders and the surrounding communities.
