EGS-plan has supported the project with fundamental commissioning services. Building commissioning is a quality management process, which verifies, that the technical systems of a new building are meeting the owner’s project requirements. Therefore, commissioning starts right at the beginning of a new building project before the design starts. In regular periods, the design and the construction of a project will be checked and compared by EGS-plan’s commissioning experts with the original owner’s expectations. The actual commissioning work starts for our team with finalizing of the construction and startup of the technical systems. A commissioning plan clarifies responsibilities and provides functional checklists, so that the startup of the building is a structured process, despite of the final hectic weeks of a construction project. The result is a building which works as intended with a low energy consumption, great thermal comfort and low maintenance costs.

EGS-plan (Bangkok) Co., Ltd. has contributed with the energy and sustainability concept as well as the DGNB certification to the project. Main goal was to achieve an excellent work environment and highest environmental quality.

The sustainability concept comprises of a high-performance building envelope with double glazing with low-e coating, efficient thermal insulation, an airtightness concept and external shading. Fresh air is delivered by an air handling unit with energy recovery, the lighting system comprises of direct-indirect LED lamps and no harmful building materials were used. Energy is supplied by a district cooling system and a solar rooftop system, which produces more renewable energy than required for building operation (net-zero).

For its outstanding sustainability concept, the building was awarded with the first DGNB Platinum certificate for office buildings in Southeast Asia.

The new Bangkok Hospital in Chiang Rai was awarded LEED Gold. The hospital building has a gross floor area of approximately 16,800 sqm on 7 stories and a basement. The building was certified according to LEED V3 for healthcare buildings by our partner company Africvs Co., Ltd.

EGS-plan (Bangkok) Co., Ltd. supported the LEED certification of the building with our engineering services for fundamental and enhanced commissioning. Building commissioning is a quality management process, which verifies, that the technical systems and the building envelope of a new building are meeting the owner’s project requirements. In regular periods, the design and the construction of a project will be checked and compared with the original owner’s expectations. The actual commissioning work starts with finalizing of the construction and startup of the technical systems. A commissioning plan clarifies responsibilities and provides functional checklists, so that the startup of the building is a structured process, despite of the final hectic weeks of a construction project.

The result is a building which works as intended with a low energy consumption, great thermal comfort and low maintenance costs.

EGS-plan’s engineering team attended a TREES training on 25th and 26th of March to become TREES Associate New Construction (TREES-A NC). TREES is the locale green building certification system developed and provided by the Thai Green Building Institute TGBI. All members of the engineering team successfully passed the training and the consecutive exam. This will improve the deeper understanding of the engineering team when they provide their commissioning services for TREES certification projects.

The PARQ is a mixed-use office building located in the center of Bangkok and has a total gross floor area of approximately 134,000 m2 on 16 floors. The project strives for the highest sustainability goals and achieved a Gold certification according to LEED V4 (C&S). Green building consultant was our partner company Africvs Co., Ltd.

EGS-plan has contributed to the project with our commissioning services including fundamental and monitoring based commissioning. While fundamental commissioning covers a basic quality control during design and construction of a building, monitoring based commissioning is a rather new methodology to use the building management system or any other data logging technology to supervise the startup of a new construction project. This is giving the opportunity to not only do the usual spot measurement during fundamental commissioning, but to conduct a continues supervision of the energy performance of a building over a longer period of time.

The result is a building which provides an outstanding environmental performance and a healthy and productive work environment for the building occupants.
