Axiom Engineers: Commissioning

NATIONAL STEINBECK CENTER, Salinas, CA

The National Steinbeck Center is a 22,000 square foot museum comprised of archive rooms, gallery space, executive offices, meeting areas, and shop and restaurant services.

High-efficiency multiple rooftop-mounted HVAC units controlled by a central DDC computerized control system helped to achieve cost and performance goals.
Full HVAC, plumbing, and fire protection design was provided with a high level of attention given to architectural, structural, and exhibit requirements.

Meeting an aggressive project budget required a conscious and ongoing value engineering process by Axiom Engineers℠ throughout the project.
