Sustainable Design in Building Infrastructure (LEED)

Building a Better World

We believe that every building project has a responsibility to be environmentally sound in terms of design impact, efficiency and sustainability. Our consulting engineers have the knowledge and supporting technologies to assist clients in creating sustainable “green” buildings. We are a member of the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and maintain a highly qualified staff of professionals who concentrate in the area of sustainability, primarily with respect to building services and building envelope. Areas of application include:

• Application of Renewable Energy Technologies
• Appropriate Ventilation Strategies
• Effective Use of Thermal Mass
• Energy and CO2 Emissions
• Reductions of Unnecessary Heat Gains
• Water Use

Our sustainability group includes registered engineers possessing certification as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Accredited Professionals.

By providing full service capabilities in the areas of MEP, environmental, fire protection and technology services, our engineers extend the sustainability design concepts into each of the dynamic aspects of building design. We also understand the significant impact imposed by data centers, security and surveillance systems and other technology services infrastructure, and the correlating effects upon the use of energy within a building. We combine all of our engineering design efforts into a holistic view of the entire project. We advise and guide our clients toward solutions that result in not only the highest levels of sustainability, but also address the overall economics in the context of their specific projects.
