New airport terminal takes security and integrated facility management
to new heights
For Bradley International
Airport, the completion of its 260,000-square-foot
terminal improvement project was a tremendous accomplishment. The reason
is two-fold. As one of the fastest-growing airports in the nation, Bradley
is now
sized to accommodate current and future scheduled passenger service with
a
modern, streamlined terminal.
Secondly, as one of
the only airports to proceed
with construction plans when the events of September 11th occurred, Bradley
is now a state-of-the-art airport with high-tech security and integrated
facility
management systems that are scaleable to meet future federal requirements.

Clackamas
County is a growing Oregon community of 362,000 with a mix of urban and
rural populations with divergent needs. County workers had outgrown existing
space
at 17 offi ces spread out around the county. Many of these were outdated
facilities with
operations costs increasing year after year. County leaders knew they
needed a new
centralized facility and wanted to build it with minimal impact on the
environment. But
with limited public funds, they were concerned about the ability to build
and operate a
building in a timely manner to take advantage of low interest rates and
availability
of construction materials.
Through
a unique design-build-operate process in partnership with Johnson Controls,
Inc. and others, Clackamas County was able to swiftly construct a cost-effective

sustainable building with the County’s fi nancial and environmental
goals in mind. The

Case study: Securities Commission Headquarters Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
The new Malaysia
Securities Commission Headquarters facility was designed around the
concept of achieving a distinctive modern form, interpreted from traditional
design to
reflect Malaysia’s history, cultural roots and future aspirations.
The roof, together with
the layered facade, shelters the building from the tropical heat and glare.
The facade
is designed to be climatically responsive to the external environment.
The entire
building facade has a hollow double skin, which forms a buffer between
indoor
and outdoor temperatures and climatic conditions. As a result, transparency
to and
from the building is optimized, daylight is maximized and energy consumption
is greatly
reduced. The building made history when it was built since it is Malaysia’s
first modern
facility with fully ductless air conditioning. Cold air is supplied through
the raised floor.
The facility also offers the first truly flexible office work environment
which allows easy
reconfiguration of air supply grills, power, communications, data, central
vacuum, central
shredder and IT systems. Johnson Controls was given the task of designing
an open,
integrated building management and control system for the facility.

South
Africa's largest pharmaceutical company to boost security and optimize
energy.
Adcock Ingram partners
with Johnson Controls to reduce headquarters facility energy consumption.
Adcock Ingram, a leading
pharmaceutical company based in Midrand, South Africa, has selected Johnson
Controls as its systems integrator to help reduce energy consumption and
increase efficiencies. The installation of the Johnson Controls Metasys®
building management system integrated with advanced security systems,
including a Digital Vision Network 5000 (DVN 5000) video surveillance
system and P2000 security management system, provides a secure, comfortable
and energy efficient campus environment.
Adcock Ingram’s
Midrand facility currently faces energy supply issues. As a result, the
company needed to develop creative ways to maximize available resources
and ensure a secure environment for more than 200 employees and termparature-sensitive
products. A large warehouse on the premises stores pharmaceuticals that
must be kept at a specific temperature. The necessity of this critical
temperature emphasizes the need for sufficient energy supply to the facility
to allow for optimum cooling.
“Adcock Ingram
needed an integrated solution that would enable the company to be innovative
with their energy supply. Johnson Controls offered them a one-stop-shop
solution that addresses their energy concerns, provides a measureable
return on investment and prepares them for future security needs,”
says Neil Cameron, general manager at Johnson Controls Systems & Services,
South Africa.
The building automation
and Closed Circuit Television (CCTV), access control security are tied
into one integrated communication system which provides intelligent management
of the facility. Apart from optimizing current energy usage, the Johnson
Controls building management system measures and pinpoints areas in the
building where further power can be saved.
The project was completed
in April 2009.
