Mechanical Milestones at Hammell Drive

Written by Power Design | Dec 12, 2024 1:34:14 PM

In the heart of Raleigh’s vibrant Dix Park area, the Hammell Drive Mixed-Use project stands as a example of innovation, collaboration, and trust — on and off the job site. This project is transforming the Dix Park development one unit at a time, featuring two 20-story towers with a combined total of more than 1.1 million square feet 

 

This project is a significant milestone for our #PDIFamily and what’s to come in the Raleigh area — our debut as the mechanical contractor for our friends at Clancy & Theys Construction. After delivering on numerous successful projects as the electrical contractor on the job site, we were honored to have earned their trust to take on both mechanical and electrical scopes this time. This partnership showcases the strength of our multi-trade approach while we let our expertise shine in more ways than one, ultimately creating a seamless experience for our partners.  

 

Hear from our people and our partners at Clancy & Theys on how we’re bringing this project to life, together.  

 

 

With nearly 700 apartment units combined, this project required intricate planning and innovative solutions to ensure energy efficiency, resident comfort, and optimal HVAC system performance. Our top-tier mechanical team members hit the ground running on this project, working together with other trades, including our own electrical and fire alarm team, to keep the project moving along while staying ahead of deadlines. 

 

 

 

A project with outdoor corridors, amenity spaces, and more requires a strategically planned mechanical installation. With a Split DX system, a VRF system, and two DOAS units, we’re able to set this building up for success for future end users. This proposed a unique challenge for our boots on the ground but not for Reuben. He has a skilled team that all have the expertise needed for these different systems, coming together, coming together to ensure unit-by-unit and floor-by-floor, these systems are properly installed 

 

What is the key to a successful project? Communication. That is one of our main priorities when it comes to working alongside our partners 

 

 

With the successes we’ve seen in Raleigh and with partners like Clancy & Theys, we can’t wait to see what’s next for us.
