FRAGA ENGINEERS City of Sunny Isles Beach RFQ NO.1 0-04-01 Professional Engineering Services sprinkler work at Miami International Airport's Concourse E. Fraga Engineers worked with Airport Operations personnel to create a phasing plan to allow for work in every sector, on every level, of Concourse E to provide for minimal disruption of everyday Concourse E activities. This project is currently under construction, and is in budget. The construction, reparation of finishes, and testing of all systems is underway and has not impacted the terminal and concourse operations. This highly technical and complex coordination (including coordination with the US Department of Homeland Security for the highly restricted US Customs areas) was accomplished successfully due to the Fraga Engineers team. The City of Sunny Isles Beach can be confident that no matter how complicated or sensitive a project will be, Fraga Engineers can complete it successfully. ~~~< - -- - s~..,- Installation of Building Lighting, Equipment, and Environmental Control Systems (Sustainable Design Et LEED) Fraga Engineers has always believed in a strong commitment to the environment and sustainable design. As such, our firm took the initiative when it came time to design our own new home, and decided to pursue LEED certification. The Silva Architects / Fraga Engineers office project is a 3100 sf interior office build-out in the City of Coral Gables. Early design decisions and careful monitoring during the construction led to the successful certification of the space by the USGBC in 2009. The interior renovation was the first of its kind to achieve LEED Gold certification in the City of Coral Gables, and our firm stands behind our new home as a concrete example of our dedication to sustainable design. This required the installation of sophisticated building lighting, equipment, and environmental control systems. State School YYY-1 (TERRA Environmental Research Institute) is a new 178,000 gsf public high school for M-DCPS. The educational program for the project was conceived as a magnet high school for grades 9-12, with program elements including Classrooms, Computer Labs, Administration, Media Center, Science rooms, and Art Labs. A Gymnasium, PE lockers & support areas, Music Suite, and Cafetorium were also provided. The program required three unique specialty Vocational Labs custom designed for the project: Robotics & Engineering Lab, Environmental Studies Lab, and Biomedical Lab. Early on in the design process, the decision was made to include a more sustainable scope and submit for LEED certification. Fraga Engineers was a key component of the project team as Engineer of Record, and led the way to various sustainable MEP solutions that enabled the project to target LEED certification. While the original target was set at basic certification, we are proud to announce that the project is currently anticipating a LEED Gold rating. This required the installation of sophisticated building lighting, equipment, and environmental control systems. A smart lighting system, responsive to daylighting and occupancy was required. A C02 monitoring system, fully automated and activating various outside air dampers was also installed. Fraga Engineers is leading the way in the field of MEP sustainability once again with the soon to be first LEED certified public high school in South Florida. The City of Sunny Isles Beach efforts in this field makes Fraga Engineers an excellent partner as the City continues to strive for a sustainable future. The Miami International Airport's MIA Mover project is a new transit station linking the Intermodal Center with the Airport Terminal. Fraga Engineers is the MEP Engineer of Record for this project, which is anticipating LEED Silver certification. 3
