29. Report for Middleton Hall Building Intelligence Quotient Assessment Pre-design (Planning and Definition) A building intelligence quotient assessment was conducted for Middleton Hall, located at 1 Middleton Ave., Middleton AB. The building is owned by City of Middleton. Middleton Hall is a 500,000 sq. ft. commercial building that was built in 2000. It has 13 storeys. The facility is described thus: “commercial offices with commercial concourse”. The tenant is city employees. There are approximately 900 occupants. The building operates 14 hrs per day, 6 days per week. The building is managed by Joe Brown. The building intelligence quotient of Middleton Hall was assessed at the pre-design stage in terms of how well it addresses issues related to project management, selection of subsystems, subsystem operation features and performance in stand-alone mode; subsystem operation in a building automation environment, and BAS equipment considerations. The purpose of this assessment is to provide guidance with respect to client needs, the range of options; technical considerations and investigations, investment analysis and selection of consultants.
