Cooling temperature control for data centre construction management
When challenges threaten on-track completion
During the summer months, high temperatures and humidity levels can pose significant threats to construction sites, directly impacting the delivery of critical infrastructure. From achieving precise cooling & humidity levels for drying processes to protecting worker productivity and safety, our tailored approach to construction temperature control is designed to keep your project on time and within budget throughout its entire lifecycle.
Every construction project presents unique challenges, and data centre construction management is no exception. And, with the ever-growing demand for data storage and processing, rising pressures for data centres to go online quickly leave no room for delays or budget overruns. During summer months, high temperatures and humidity levels can pose significant threats to construction sites, directly impacting the delivery of critical infrastructure.
Key challenges that can cause construction setbacks include:
- Worker productivity and safety - Exposure to extreme temperatures can lead to heat-related health issues, as well as the potential for more work breaks, impacting productivity.
- Curing and drying time - Without the correct temperature and moisture levels, drying out concrete and curing specialty finishes can be a lengthy process, leading to schedule delays and inability to validate specs and warranties.
- Equipment damage - Condensation can cause premature ageing, rusting and breakdown of construction equipment.
- HVAC system delays - Delays in hand-over and occupancy when the building is ready, but the HVAC system isn’t yet commissioned or is unavailable due to supply chain constraints.
