LA County Assessor Office – Culver City
Project Overview
This project involves the interior renovation of an office space within an existing building at 6167 Bristol Parkway in Culver City, California. Renovations include updates to lighting, power, HVAC, and plumbing systems, with modifications to device locations and layouts to optimize functionality. The design is based on project files and communications received on 10/16/23, covering an approximate interior area of 5,350 square feet, and aims to create a modern, efficient, and fully coordinated workspace.
Project Scope
Electrical Engineering:
Electrical engineering services include reviewing as-built or record drawings and observing existing site conditions to determine the tenant’s point of electrical connection. We evaluate system capacity and anticipated loads to identify the need for additional equipment, such as panels or transformers. The scope includes designing a complete interior electrical system with interior lighting circuiting plans (fixture layout by the Architect), lighting control diagrams per Title 24, state lighting energy compliance calculations and forms, emergency egress lighting layouts with photometric calculations, and power circuit plans for general, mechanical, and plumbing systems. Additional deliverables include single-line diagrams, voltage drop and short-circuit (AIC) calculations, and coordination of empty conduit layouts for low-voltage systems to ensure a fully integrated, code-compliant electrical system.
Mechanical Engineering:
Mechanical engineering services include reviewing record drawings, observing existing site conditions, and preparing zoning diagrams for coordination. The scope covers specifying and designing all new HVAC equipment as required, developing new air distribution layouts, and designing return and supply diffusers. State-required mechanical energy compliance calculations and forms are also prepared, ensuring efficient, code-compliant, and fully coordinated HVAC systems for the renovated office space.
Plumbing Engineering:
Plumbing engineering services include reviewing as-built documentation, observing existing site conditions, and designing plumbing systems for new breakroom fixtures. The scope also includes drainage design for HVAC equipment, ensuring all plumbing systems are functional, code-compliant, and seamlessly integrated with the overall building design.
