Engineering West Hall Cooling Tower Replacement and Architectural Pyramid Renovation
This project consists of replacing the cooling towers and renovating the iconic architectural pyramid at Engineering West Hall, home to the VCU College of Engineering. The cooling towers have reached the end of their service life and prolonged exposure to water vapor and other environmental factors have led to significant corrosion of the architectural pyramid at the top of the towers.
