Project Cardinal
North Carolina, United States
Targeting LEED® Gold certification, this project serves as the prototype of the client’s next-generation data center program. At this fault-tolerant, concurrently maintainable, Tier III+ facility, 72 hours of fuel and 300,000 gallons of chilled water are stored onsite to ensure operational continuity during the most challenging conditions. With 25,000 square feet of white space on Day 1, expandable to 70,000 square feet, the project will continue to meet the client’s growing demands. All critical building systems are backed up by UPS systems, and the structure is almost entirely precast concrete designed to withstand wind loads of up to 200 miles per hour.
