We’re taking things to the next level when it comes to mechanical systems in the student housing sector of our expertise. These projects operate on some of the tightest deadlines in the construction industry, with the school year firmly set, there’s no room for scheduling errors or delays. Our multi-trade teams recently stepped up and delivered an innovative solution for Florida A&M University’s (FAMU) 700-room student housing facility, showcasing the benefits of being the multi-trade contractor on-site — including pre-coordination and collaboration, technical expertise on mechanical systems, and seamless project delivery.
FAMU has fully invested in future-proofing this university, including this large expansion. From expanding the university’s central energy plant to installing advanced mechanical systems, our capabilities proved themselves to meet aggressive timelines while delivering a top-tier quality installation. We sat down with Project Executive David Wenzlaff to get a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to bring a project like this one to life.

By enhancing its hydronic systems and integrating them into the new campus loop, this project not only supports current needs but also future-proofs the university for expansion. The impact this expansion will have goes beyond just a school year, and we’re proud to stand next to our partners on an expansion of this size.
Our capability to execute such a large-scale and complex system showcases our growth in mechanical contracting. As our mechanical-focused teams have evolved, our project systems have too, from simpler HVAC projects to hydronic systems and more — and it’s just the beginning.
From our mechanical leadership to our best practices and training facilities, we’re ensuring that our team members are properly trained and continue to learn and grow as these systems evolve. At Power Design, we don’t just build systems—we engineer innovations for growth. From coordination to execution, our team is shaping the future of construction, one project at a time.
