Wooten has worked on several projects for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina, providing mechanical, engineering and plumbing services. Those projects include data center modifications, a five-story office building, and six-level parking deck.
The corporate office is designed to use 65% less energy and half the water per square foot than the company's traditional office space. Up to 20% of the materials used in construction are recycled including material for masonry, countertops, interior finishes as well as parking area.
The facility was designed with water and energy-saving features throughout including: Efficient light fixtures and use of natural light, water and energy-conserving heating and air conditioning systems, use of captured rainwater for toilets and air conditioning, drought-resistant plants and landscaping. The project has been certified as LEED Gold.
