BPCE:Project Experience

Computer/Data Centers

Bridgers & Paxton's computer facility experience ranges from the design of data/service centers to computing complexes that house supercomputers. B&P has extensive experience designing building infrastructure systems that are reliable, energy-efficient, and produce the proper environmental conditions that are essential in the design of computing facilities.

B&P's computer/data center experience includes the design of specialized cooling configurations, power quality requirements, energy efficient building HVAC systems, stringent environmental control systems, reliable electrical systems, system flexibility for changes in technology, and redundant mechanical and electrical systems, which are all important functions within computing facilities. Our firm has been designing systems for computer facilities for over 45 years. Since most buildings designed today have computer areas, we have provided below a selection of projects where the primary role of the building is to house computers and their support systems:
