P1 Group completed the University of Kansas School of Business in 2016. The main building is four stories with classrooms, an administration area and a large atrium. It is connected to a remote chiller building with underground tunnels, which connect and transport the cooling/heating between the two buildings. The HVAC system consists of a variable volume air distribution system with 198 dual duct VAV boxes with conditioned/ventilated air. The conditioned air is provided by seven AHUs with heating/cooling coils. The ventilated air is provided by three DOAS units with both coils and energy recovery wheels. The exterior zones include reheat coils and perimeter fintube for glass exterior wall systems. The atrium is served by an underground fiberglass duct distribution. The building is also equipped with a smoke evacuation system for the atrium.
