In February 2016, a tornado destroyed several apartment buildings in the Moorings Apartment complex. W3 Engineering Inc. provide HVAC, Plumbing, and Fire Protection design for two new two-story apartment buildings, each approximately 8,300 sq. ft.
The project had recently received federal funding for energy upgrades and required that the new apartment meet the efficiency requirements set forth in that program. In addition to matching the existing buildings and being on a short deadline to rehouse displaced victims of the tornado, the project also included bringing the new apartment buildings up to current Florida building codes.
