## Description

Refurbishment of the window frames, coupled with replacement of glazing with slimline double-glazed units is required\. The project management team must provide a detailed specification of requirements for repair and replacement glazing in three buildings \(107no\. windows\)\.

There is also a data suite that is expanding it's capacity and currently utilising 3 CRAC units that need to be replaced\. The requirement is for these to be replaced with units capable of offering 'free-cooling' when outside environmental conditions are favourable, thus offering financial savings and carbon footprint reduction by reduction in electricity use\. The project management team must therefore design a system to provide adequate capacity cooling for the data suite and also produce a specification capable of being used in a tender process\. This design must also include for structural engineering aspects and architectural design of any external plant enclosure\.
