Project Overview
- Type: Electrical / Mechanical Engineering
- Client: Miami-Dade Police Department
- Location: Miami, FL
G.M. Selby provided comprehensive electrical and mechanical design services for the Miami-Dade Police Department’s Tactical Training Center. The project included the development of new systems for the ammunition bunker and simulation buildings, ensuring safety, efficiency, and code compliance while integrating seamlessly with existing infrastructure.
Project Background
The Tactical Training Center required upgraded facilities to support advanced police training exercises. The addition of the ammunition bunker and simulation buildings created a need for new electrical, HVAC, and fire protection systems that could handle operational demands while adhering to all applicable safety and energy codes.
