CKUA radio network is a project which demonstrates the skills and knowledge of both our mechanical and electrical design teams, in the delivery of integrated services. Also, this project required the use of Revit / BIM for overall project coordination and design delivery.

Our team provided Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Consulting Services, in collaboration with Kasian Architecture (formerly HIP Architecture), for a 35,000 SF Tenant Improvement and base building. Consulting services included the design and construction administration for a new data centre, building access controls, and a comprehensive security system.

The CKUA building project was a unique one—Dub Architects commandeered the historic Alberta Hotel building facade and repurposed it to create a unique new environment. In the words of the project lead, Wes Bullock, this project, and the required work was a “fusion of old and new.” Electrical requirements were complex as CKUA’s broadcasting equipment required highly technical design innovations and work effort. Our team was honoured to have the opportunity to work on such a unique and iconic project within the City of Edmonton.
