Local Engineering Context

Authority Having Jurisdiction: City of Phoenix Planning & Development Department (SHAPE PHX)
Building Code: 2018 IBC with Phoenix amendments
Energy Code: 2018 IECC
Local Market: Phoenix is one of the top multifamily construction markets in the country — sustained apartment and BTR (build-to-rent) pipeline drives significant multifamily MEP demand.
Climate & Engineering Conditions: Zone 2B; cooling-dominated climate means system selection (mini-split, PTAC, fan-coil, central VRF) has major operational cost implications; roof insulation and cool roofs offset cooling loads.
