USF Southeast Chiller Plant
Structural Engineering Design At USF Southeast Chiller Plant
Biller Reinhart Engineering Group, Inc. performed the structural engineering design and prepared the construction documents (drawings and specifications) for a new chiller plant facility adjacent to the Sun Dome Arena (Yuengling Center) located on the University of South Florida campus. The plant consists of a 70’x120’ concrete/CMU building with interior structural steel columns integrated into the adjacent embankment and “Corral” of the Sun Dome. The building roof framing consists of structural steel beams and girders. The new building houses the chillers and associated piping and mechanical equipment. The cooling towers are supported on elevated structural steel platforms located on the new building’s roof structure. Additionally, elevated service catwalks and platforms surround the roof level cooling towers. A screen wall approximately 30 feet above the building roof is constructed on top of the building
