General
Services Administration Southern Maryland United States District
Courthouse Greenbelt, Maryland
Project Details
WFT Engineering provided mechanical, plumbing, electrical,
and fire protection engineering design services for several
renovations in this prestigious courthouse in Greenbelt, Maryland.
Our design included the refurbishing of approximately 13,000
sf of office space into a new court clerks facility and the
conversion of approximately 14,000 sf of office space into
new judge’s chambers and new district courtrooms. Extensive
site survey and coordination with the architect was required
to verify the existing facility design. New mechanical HVAC
distribution systems were designed to comply with the environmental
and noise design criteria required. New electrical power,
data, telephone, audio/visual, and security system designs
were provided for all areas. New plumbing fixtures and piping
were designed to accommodate the new judge's chambers and
jury deliberation areas. The fire protection system was updated
to comply with the new occupancies. All of the design work
was performed to comply with special client requests and the
U.S. Courts Design Guide, 1997, and the GSA Facility Design
Guide P-100, 2004.
