Pedro Valdivia 10 is a multitenant existing office building located in Madrid, Spain, where different companies have established their main headquarters.
The building is compound by eleven floors, eight of them above ground for office use (a basement, a low level and six additional floors). Below ground, there are three floors for parking space. Besides, the total site area reaches 928,00 m2 and it´s a zero lot line case, so the entire site is occupied by the footprint of the building.
This project is operated and maintained following USGBC’ sustainability criteria most updated version for Existing Buildings. The project has obtained a GOLD certification with the participation of the owner (Merlin Properties), the building tenants and LEED Consultants.
One of the most distinguished features of the project is the high level of sustainability in terms of alternative transport and energy performance. Due to the location of the building, a high percentage of occupants uses public transport for trips. Consequently, it makes possible to reach the highest punctuation regarding alternative transport. Moreover, it should be noted that the building facilities are extremely well operated and maintained, so the best equipment performance is obtained. Both, alternative transport, energy performance and quality maintenance tasks let the project obtain a high score.
Other important aspects related to building sustainability are:
- 89,38% of the building occupants normally choose a sustainability alternative transportation to go to their job.
- 100% of parking lots are placed below ground level reducing heat island effect.
- Existing efficient water supply fixtures, such as efficient urinals, showerheads, public lavatory faucets and kitchen faucets allow to obtain a 36,95 % potable water savings.
- No outdoor water consumption is required on the plot as there is no landscaped areas.
- An ASHRAE Energy Audit Level 2 has been developed in order to optimize facilities efficiency.
- A high-energy performance score (20 points) has been achieved considering multitenant energy consumptions.
- All Lamps purchased are led and total mercury content per bulb is 0,00 picograms/lumen-hr.
- The health and comfort of the occupants is addressed by the existing 100% outdoor air Air Handling Units.
- Outdoor units that supply air to the building have filtering systems with F7 efficiency.
- At least 54,76% of regularly occupied floor areas has access to quality views.
