Glumac has provided engineering services to the San Francisco International Airport for the past 30 years. Over this span we have worked on all aspects of airport operations; tenant airplanes, shops, operations center, terminal and concourse refurbishments, and parking facilities.

Terminal 3, Boarding Area E Refurbishment

The 110,000 sf project consisted of demolition and reconstruction of the existing Boarding Area E pier in Terminal 3. Glumac was responsible for establishing the design criteria, selecting MEP systems, and providing partial design development level plans and specifications to establish overall standards for utility and quality for a “design-build” project delivery, as well as providing energy modeling services to ensure the project meets the Airport’s sustainable design goals and requirement to achieve LEED Gold certification. Selected Design-build Contractors are responsible for completing the design, providing final construction drawings and construction to provide systems within the established project budget.

West Field Cargo Facility

Provided MEP engineering services for the ’bid-set’ portion of this design-build procurement. Also developed the energy model for the facility. Duration: 2012 to 2014.

Duty Free Stores (DFS) Tenant Improvements

Provided MEP Engineering services for Tenant improvements for 35+ Duty Free retail stores, totaling more than 40,000-sf in terminals A, G, and International wing. Services included: HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, power, lighting and fire alarm systems and construction support.

SFO Secure Connector (Between Terminal 3 to International Terminal)

The 14,500 sf project consisted of construction of a new Secure Connector between Domestic Terminal 3 and the International Terminal to allow passengers to transfer between connecting international and domestic flights without leaving secure areas of the airport.

Glumac was responsible for establishing the design criteria, selecting MEP systems, and providing design development level plans and specifications for systems to be provided to establish overall standards for utility and quality in collaboration with the design team in a “design-assist” project delivery approach. Selected Contractors then assisted in completing the design, providing details, final construction drawings, and means and methods of construction in order to provide systems within the established project budget.
