Houston Data Center

Located on 79 acres adjacent to the client's main campus, this 265,000-square-foot Tier 3 module data center includes 100,000 square feet of raised floor area.

The client’s aggressive schedule required planning, design, and construction to be completed in 22 months.

The hardened facility is a cast-in-place concrete structure clad with precast panels designed to withstand a Category 5 hurricane. PGAL designed the structure to withstand temperature and shrinkage effects with no expansion joints and provided a 422-foot by 528-foot area of concrete roof plate.

The program included 35,000-square-foot computer room cells and 125,000-square-foot data center support space, as well as a 100,000-square-foot mechanical yard with 16 two-megawatt diesel generators.
