Specifications include, but are not limited to: The project, located at 48th and Market Streets in West Philadelphia will include construction of a technology-rich facility of approximately 75,000 ft2. The Center will offer rigorous career-based education and training using the latest technology and equipment to provide hands-on training and employment skills, fulfilling a regional need for skilled workers in automotive technology, advanced manufacturing, and health care. Program design and development will respond to industry needs using regional and local assessments, surveys, and environmental scans, and will align with local and state workforce development priorities, such as the High Priority Occupation list from the PA Department of Labor and Industry and Fueling Philadelphia’s Talent Engine, Philadelphia’s citywide workforce development strategy. The new facility will be a multi-story facility. Due to the grade drop along 48th Street, the facility will be three stories from Ludlow Street and four stories from Market Street. Auto-technology programs will be located off of Ludlow Street and Diesel Technologies will be located off of Market Street. The building will be steel structure with masonry cavity wall construction and curtainwall on the ground and first floors. The second and third floors will consist of light gauge metal framing construction with curtainwall, storefront and metal panel exterior construction. All interior construction will consist of light gauge metal framing and drywall. Ceiling systems will consist of varied systems specific to the use of the space. Floor finishes will vary and again will be specific to the use of the space. The facility will have two distinct HVAC systems: a general system to serve the majority of the building (classrooms, etc.) and dedicated systems to serve the Auto Tech and Diesel/Heavy Equipment program spaces, with their unique code and operational requirements. The general HVAC system will be a Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) system to generally heat and cool the spaces supplemented by a Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS) to provide ventilation outdoor air. Auto Tech and Diesel/Heavy Equipment HVAC Systems will be fairly specific.
