Mount Carmel Health Systems required quick occupancy, and a normal construction schedule would not meet their needs. TP Mechanical proposed a prefabrication process to reduce the construction schedule. We rented a warehouse two miles from the project to prefabricate 1,500 feet of rack systems that included domestic water, fire protection, medical gas, heating hot water, supply and return ductwork, VAV terminal units, control wiring, and electrical services. The piping and ductwork were pressure-tested prior to delivery.The Mount Carmel St Ann’s Tower project located at 500 ...Read More
When TriMold LLC, a plastic supplier for Honda, came to us to design and build their fire protection system, we knew we had quite a job on our hands.
Due to the nature of the type of production going on in this facility, fire suppression and special hazard design was vital to the safety of the building and its occupants. Additionally, the remote location of the facility meant it didn’t have a nearby water source sufficient enough to sustain the necessary hazard design.

Considered an “architectural jewel,” the Ohio Wesleyan University Stuyvesant Hall residence hall is a campus icon. Originally constructed in 1931, the 74,000-square-foot building was considered a model for dormitories when it opened its doors to students. Today, it’s one of 11 Ohio Wesleyan buildings on the National Register of Historic Places.
Originally, the building was an all-female dormitory. During WWII, the women were relocated, and the building was occupied by V-5 Navy students. Today it’s a co-ed building and houses about 230 college students every year. Boasting such amenities as a smoking lounge known as the “Smoker” ...Read More
