Project Overview
MEP engineering for the Rakar Industrial – Oxnard project supports the conversion of an existing office and warehouse building into a hybrid office and light industrial facility located at 1680 Universe Circle in Oxnard, California.
A key component of the project is the relocation of Rakar’s existing shop equipment from its current facility to the new Oxnard location. Mechanical and plumbing engineering services are provided to support the equipment installation and secure the required permits, while the electrical scope consists of an independent peer review of the electrical design documents.
The project requires close coordination between the existing building infrastructure, relocated industrial equipment, equipment utility requirements, and permitting requirements.
Project Scope
MEP engineering services include mechanical and plumbing design associated with the conversion of the existing office/warehouse building and installation of relocated shop equipment.
Engineering systems are coordinated with equipment schedules and manufacturer utility requirements to provide the infrastructure necessary for the new light industrial operations. The design addresses applicable mechanical ventilation, equipment connections, plumbing utilities, and other building modifications required for permitting.
Electrical engineering services are provided as a peer review, evaluating the electrical design documents for coordination, technical quality, and compatibility with the proposed facility and equipment requirements.
Stamped and signed plan check documents are prepared on an accelerated schedule following receipt of the required background drawings and equipment utility information.
