Going for the Gold

HICAPS recently completed two LEED projects at FT Bragg, NC. The first project was the Training Support Center at Ft Bragg, NC.

HICAPS provided LEED management for construction phase and commissioning of building systems for a new 118,700 sf training support facility at Ft. Bragg, NC. Services included the fundamental commissioning of building systems per LEED standard Fundamental Commissioning of the Building Energy Systems to include HVAC, lighting controls and domestic hot water. The project target was LEED Silver; however as the project neared completion we found we were one point away from achieving LEED Gold status. The team analyzed and discussed the point status. Seeing we could attain exemplary performance credits under Materials and Resources for three different credits with no additional cost to the project, in addition to achieving the targeted goals for LEED, the team was able to achieve the points necessary for LEED Gold. The USACE will move forward with certification on this project.
