| About |
A state of the art office facility for Transend Networks at their existing Lenah Valley site. |
The state of the art office facility for Transend
Networks, at their existing Lenah Valley site is 120
meters long, 25 meters wide, and has a footprint
of approximately 3000 square meters. The design
has a 5 star energy rating with the building
incorporating many features of note.
The exterior form resembles a traditional saw
tooth industrial building but with greater flair. This
form, along with the carefully selected materials,
insulation, and placement of windows adds to the
comfort and economy of the space. Aside from
the structure and what is seen, the services include
solar hot water, 10kW solar electricity, an extensive
climate control, and building management system
to regulate the internal conditions.
The design of the building is based on a 5 Green
Star design rating with double glazed units used
extensively on all perimeter glazing. Solar panels
dominate the roof space, supplying electricity back
into the grid. Evacuated tubes gather hot water
that is transferred to heating and cooling within the
building.
