Nebraska Furniture Mart

1.3 million sqft. retail show building and warehouse.

The project was a 560,000 SF retail show building attached to a 1.3 million SF warehouse. Building functions include shipping/receiving, furniture, and appliance repair, break rooms, and a data center. The MEP systems include a total of six 3,000 amp main switchboards with generators for life safety, a 3,000-ton central plant with ice storage for peak-time energy savings, and eight 35,000 CFM VAV air handlers. Approximately 75,000 SF of the warehouse is designed with conditioned air; the remaining warehouse is serviced by radiant heaters, high-volume, low-speed fans, and air rotation units. Specialized repair areas consist of duct collection system humidity control units.
