NASA's Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, Texas, undertook the construction of Building 20, also known as the LEED Office Facility for Transition (LOFT), to provide transitional office space during the refurbishment of existing facilities. We provided third-party commissioning services to fulfill LEED Fundamental and Enhanced Building Commissioning requirements.
Through our testing, adjusting, and balancing (TAB) process, we determined that the building's energy performance exceeds standard office buildings by 57 percent. This was achieved through a highly efficient building envelope, underfloor air distribution system (UFAD), total energy recovery wheel, and solar hot water harvesting, supplying 18 percent of the building's domestic hot water consumption. The commissioned systems also included chilled water booster pumps, air handling units, terminal units, and a building automation system to meet project requirements.
Through performance-driven design and meticulous commissioning, the LOFT exemplifies NASA's commitment to innovation, efficiency, and the future of high-performing workplaces. The building earned LEED Platinum status for its comprehensive sustainable design and construction practices.
