ÅF has developed a number of concepts in the field of installations which are designed to:
- simplify the construction process
- give clients full control over the cost of installations
- steer installations work towards defined performance specifications
ÅF concepts:
- Coordinated project planning and design of installations
- Energy performance contracts
The main focus of our work in this area is planning installations (together with the appropriate control and regulation equipment) for heating/cooling, ventilation, air-conditioning and sanitation, electrics, telecommunications, safety and transportation in conjunction with the construction, renovation and extension of
- Commercial and public premises
- Industrial premises
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities
- Laboratories
- Private homes
- Sports facilities
- Shopping centres and retail establishments
- Schools
Installations constitute an increasingly large percentage of construction costs and have a crucial role to play for the function of the building. Moreover, when high demands with regard to the indoor climate and communication solutions are combined with the need for low overall costs, the challenge becomes even more complex.
The guiding principle for all our work is to make sure that the installations in the building are perfectly attuned to the way in which the building is used. This is an absolute necessity if the building is to meet the purpose for which it was designed.
