Take an inside look at our latest projects.
- The NATIONAL BUSINESS PARKWAY BUILDING 300 (NBP 300) project involved a $3.8 million construction of a seven-story, 175,000 sq. ft. core and shell office building in Annapolis Junction, Maryland which will be LEED®-certified for Core and Shell. Mechanical Engineering & Construction Corporation (MEC²) . . .
- The ERICKSON RETIREMENT COMMUNITY (Award of Merit winner 2009) project involved construction of a 150,000 sq. ft. full fit-out of an office and general use building. Mechanical Engineering & Construction Corporation (MEC²) was the mechanical contractor responsible for the plumbing, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and control system installation. The project was . . .
- The INTEGRAL SYSTEMS (Award of Excellence winner 2009) project involved a $992,000 renovation construction of a five-story, 125,000 sq. ft. tenant fit-out of a core and shell office building in Columbia Gateway Office Park in Columbia, Maryland which will be LEED®-certified for Commercial Interiors. Mechanical Engineering & Construction Corporation (MEC²) was the mechanical contractor responsible for . . .
- How can low-temperature hot water coils maximize heating efficiency? Find out how MEC² lowered the boom on high energy costs while maximizing reuse of existing mechanical spaces and building components at 230 SCHILLING CIRCLE (Green Building of America Award and The USGBC of Maryland Core & Shell Project of the Year).
- Pre-heating and pre-chilling. Hot new heat exchanger technology that’s pretty cool. To build a state-of-the-art operational plant in an environmentally friendly new construction project, MEC² installed that and more at ARUNDEL PRESERVE (Award of Excellence winner 2008).
- Queuing up modular resources in parallel is the healthy choice to combat heating cost control. See how MEC² did just that and more to keep air quality in the pink for CARE FIRST RRSC EXPANSION.
- What’s tougher than meeting and exceeding year-round temperature and ventilation standards for LEED® Commercial Interiors certification on an existing building renovation? Doing it on a tight turnaround. Learn how MEC² performed to a “T” amidst sprinkler, electrical, plumbing and general construction to enable occupancy sooner rather than later on the GE CAPITAL PROJECT.
- How do you remove and replace the entire core heating and cooling system of a 120,000 square-foot building – while the tenants are still working there? Find out how MEC² did it at HUNT VALLEY ONE (Award of Excellence winner 2007).
- How did MEC² help a 60,000 square-foot shell earn LEED® certification – and why did we install an under-floor ventilation system? Get the whole story on MEADOWRIDGE 95 (Award of Merit winner 2007).
- The project was already delayed by bad weather, poor soil conditions and design errors. Then a 75,000 square-foot tenant improvement project was added – with no extensions to the deadline. Find out how MEC² beat the odds, and the deadline, at MOR 70 BUILDING F.
- What happens when the design team changes the height that the cooling tower projects off the roofline – during construction? See how MEC² rose to the challenge at NATIONAL BUSINESS PARK 302.
- How do you install mechanical and plumbing systems for a 12th-floor office when the building isn't finished and the elevators aren’t running yet? MEC² did it for THOMSON PROMETRIC (Award of Merit winner 2006).
