The Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority (MWAA) is currently

an east and west concourse.

- Limited Space
Innovations and Solutions:
Contracted with the architect Giuliani Associates, Syska provided
worked closely with the team of consultants from different companies.
Because of the limited space available for this project, Syska
managed to provide all main utilities within a five foot crawl
space. We proposed to provide a floor mounted displacement air
distribution system to maintain the temperature within the occupied
space; this allowed us to maintain high ceiling space and reduce
the consumption of air to conserve energy. Syska also played an
integral part in the development of a technology cable plant which
allowed for the integration of existing airport systems.
