On this project, Mintropy provided MEP engineering design services to renovate the commercial office space for the Social Security Administration building on Chicago’s North side. New HVAC and lighting systems were designed throughout the facility. The low voltage systems and data wiring were also crucial for supporting additional workstations throughout the facility, enabling an increase of 50 additional employees over the previous design. Planning, Coordination, and Value Engineering services were employed in reusing most of the existing HVAC systems to support the newly renovated space to meet the client needs while keeping costs to a minimum.
