Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing

From the start of any project, we understand the need to develop a building where the internal environment is
balanced, providing comfortable spaces for occupants while keeping carbon emissions and running costs as low

as possible. Achieving this requires an integrated approach, working with all members of the design team to
ensure that the electrical systems are strategically integrated into the project.
We have a rich heritage in the design of environmentally responsible, high performance buildings around the
world. With leading experts in all aspects of building physics supported by state-of-the-art building performanceanalysis tools and sophisticated design technology, we bring powerful thinking to any design team worldwide,
whatever the project. Working collaboratively, we will always pursue a sustainable solution exploring the use of
the building's location, orientation, shading and structural form to drive down the need for mechanical
installations. Our sustainable, high-performance, low-energy solutions will be integrated into the very fabric of the
building to create light and airy spaces for living and working. With international offices home to local experts, we
bring leading-edge thinking to projects worldwide in an approach that ensures compliance with local regulations
and standards.
From day one, we work to ensure that the electrical distribution requirements, standby power generation, lighting,
building security and integrated IT systems are robust, safe and cost effective in terms of product specification
and long-term running costs.
With astute commercial understanding, we respond to the need for today's buildings to be designed to meet as
yet undefined future needs. This includes designing systems with flexibility, and enabling installations to be easily
adapted for different uses as they arise in the years to come. Our whole-life costing analysis of proposed systems

Dr Chau Chak Wing Building

Bricklayers have called their involvement in its construction a career highlight, and soon it will be where the next generation of
business careers are nurtured.
Designed by internationally-renowned architect Frank Gehry, the University of Technology, Sydneys new Business School, with its
rippling faade and angled columns, is one of the most iconic buildings currently under construction in Australia, setting a precedent for
future architectural design.
Having been referred to as a cluster of tree houses, a crumpled paper bag and an urban sandcastle, the Dr Chau Chak Wing
buildings unique masonry faade - contorting and twisting in a three-dimensional plane for the full height of the 14-storey structure created structural engineering challenges requiring innovative solutions.
In collaboration with UTS and the brick supplier, AECOM developed a unique brick, tie, mortar and backing system that solved the load,
constructability and complex geometrical issues, allowing a near impossible feat of engineering to be realised.
There is no building in the world that has bricks like this, Stephen Giblett, AECOMs Building Structures Lead, told ABC Radios By
Design program.
The bricklayers on this project are very proud of what theyve done, because theyve taken standard bricklaying and theyve gone back
to being the grand masons of centuries past to create something beautiful.
One of the bricklayers even has a tattoo on his arm of the brickswhich shows the pride they have in what theyve achieved, and
which results in the buildings defining characteristic.
Its not just the outside of the Dr Chau Chak Wing building where boundaries are being pushed.
AECOM worked with UTS to embed several sustainability features within the building that again set it apart as a 21st century learning
space.
One of the challenges AECOM faced in partnership with UTS was how to heat and cool the building sustainably. The interior consists
of various different zones - lecture theatres, offices and meeting rooms all requiring different methods of temperature control.
The solution? Provide dedicated air conditioning units for each zone, and sensor technology to minimise wastage when a zone is
unoccupied. The building also uses a higher than normal volumes of outdoor air to cool fan coil units.
This fresh-air feature, combined with shorter air conditioning ducts means fans dont need to work as hard, and air-cooled chillers mean
the building does not consume much water in the process. In fact, water usage is kept to a minimum across the building, with a fire
water reclamation system and water-efficient appliances fitted throughout.
The Dr Chau Chak Wing Business School is scheduled to open late this year. Listen to AECOMs Stephen Giblett discuss AECOMs
work on this iconic project on ABC Radios By Design Program.
