Project Description

This project involves the residential expansion of an existing property located on Van Ness Avenue, specifically focusing on a multi-unit apartment complex extension. The development includes the construction of a new two-storey building designed to accommodate multiple residential units, designated as Units A, B, and C, featuring modern layouts with dedicated living areas, bedrooms, and kitchens.

The engineering scope for this extension is comprehensive, encompassing high-efficiency electrical systems with a dedicated multi-meter center and solar-ready provisions. The mechanical design utilizes Daikin multi-zone heating and cooling systems to ensure individualized climate control for each unit, while the plumbing infrastructure includes a complete water distribution and sanitary sewer network designed to meet current California Building Codes.

In addition to the internal systems, the project incorporates significant site improvements such as a specialized drainage plan with permeable pavers and a dedicated driveway for resident access. The development also prioritized energy efficiency, as evidenced by the inclusion of Title 24 Performance Compliance reports, ensuring the new construction meets stringent environmental and sustainability standards.
