Education Projects
Dynamix has completed mechanical, electrical, plumbing and technology design for over 300 OSFC building projects since the inception of the Ohio Schools Facility Commission.
We started with one of the first projects to be completed through the process and have been involved each year in providing information designed to update the manual. We have extensive experience working on standard OSFC projects, Expedited Local Partnership projects and providing assessments for the Exceptional Needs Program.
Dynamix Engineering has been instrumental in designing state-of-the-art educational facilities. These buildings share the latest in sustainable design strategies, technology and energy efficiency. Designing educational facilities requires experience and a knowledgeable team of individuals utilizing the right technology to design complex energy efficient systems that promote student learning.
This experience, coupled with our desire to provide site-specific systems for each building, makes us an asset for every district.
