Troy Housing Authority Residential Communities
Surveying and Commissioning
Location: Troy, NY
Owner: Troy Housing Authority
Status: Ongoing
The Project:
Erdman Anthony provided surveying and commissioning (Cx) services for improvements to multiple affordable housing facilities in Troy, NY.
Features/Solutions:
Our survey team documented the existing site conditions at each of the five assigned facilities. The survey work included boundary and topographic mapping, as well as issuing ALTA/NSPS land title survey documents. The mapping was forwarded to the design team for use in the planning and implementation process. Once the improvements progressed, Erdman Anthony was re-engaged to provide commissioning services. These additional services started during the renovation, continued through the acceptance phase, and concluded during the building turnover phase.
Erdman Anthony provided Cx services for the following mechanical and electrical systems:
- Heat pumps
- Energy recovery units
- Boilers
- Electric heaters
- Exhaust fans
- DHW heaters
- Terminal heating valves
- Gas furnaces
- Lighting
- Building automation systems
Impacts:
Survey deliverables documented existing conditions on the site and were referenced as the design improvements progressed. The commissioning provided documentation of the installed improvements to the building systems, ultimately contributing to residents’ quality of life.
