A zero net energy (ZNE) building produces as much energy as it consumes annually. ZNE facilities combine superior energy efficiency with onsite renewable energy production. ZNE construction is achieved through an integrated design process emphasizing the team approach...
BCH provides a full array of pre-construction services and has participated in multiple projects implementing Integrated Project Delivery (IPD). This delivery method is unique as it creates a team-based approach that brings the entire design and construction process...
BCH Mechanical is at the forefront of 3-D CAD coordination and has been for over 10 years. By rendering full 3-D coordinated drawings for our sheet metal and piping, we can build a project in “virtual space”. We can then obtain the coordination drawings...
In many ways, we in construction find ourselves in an age of specialization. Take ductwork, for example. It is conceivable that seven different companies could be involved with the installation of just one piece of duct. One company could be responsible for drawings,...
Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) is an energy efficient heating, cooling, and ventilation (HVAC) system which delivers precise temperatures to individually controlled zones. Widely used in Japan and Europe, VRF technology has been slowly introduced in the United...
