This is a delivery-method resource, not project-specific design. Electrical protection, cable sizing, cooling capacity, fire strategy and structural loads require the appointed designers and the applicable codes. Technical review of this cluster by a named senior BIM/MEP lead is pending; do not treat it as sealed guidance.
Print it, download it, argue with it. Every item maps to an information-management or coordination failure that shows up on data-center programmes. ISO 19650 still requires the appointment to define what “done” means; this list only asks whether you checked.
