LIGHTING
Lighting design is one of our specialties. And the more unique the lighting system, the better.
Light not only creates a functional environment, but it is also an innovative way to enhance the architectural experience. Our integrated lighting solutions reveal architecture, create emotion, accentuate materials, conserve energy, encourage productivity, and facilitate long-term maintenance. Advances in technology, renewed interest in sustainability, and stringent energy codes have made lighting designers critical team members for every project.
- Our Lighting Services Include
- Develop Lighting Concepts
- Lighting Renderings
- Lighting Calculations
- Lighting Controls
- Stamped Construction Drawings
- In-Field Aiming
FIRE PROTECTION/LIFE SAFETY
When it comes to saving lives, MEP Engineering Services is passionate and innovative. We make fire protection and life safety a focal point in all designs.
When applied early in design, life saving features such as fire sprinklers, detection, fire alarms and mass notification, smoke exhaust, high expansion foam, and clean agent chemical extinguishing systems can allow for cost savings in other areas of construction. We stay current with all aspects of the fire and life safety community and work in harmony with the code authorities, installation contractors, and vendors to provide the best final products for our clients.
- Our Fire Protection and Life Safety Services Include
- Fire and Life Safety Studies
- Systems for New and Renovated Facilities
COMMISSIONING
Building Systems Commissioning (BSC) brings continuity, communication, and overall responsibility for coordination and control. The BSC process is an intentional enhancement that brings a building successfully on line from its earliest phases, i.e., programming and/or schematic design.
Our commissioning professionals preview the installed and operational systems and components versus the design intent and expected standards. Discrepancies are identified and documented for remedial attention by the contractor and various sub-contractors. MEP Engineering Services’ commissioning team stays engaged throughout the remediation process.
- A BSC Process Generally Includes
- Developing a commissioning plan
- Preparing and enhancing commissioning specifications during various design phases
- Confirming interim and final O&M manuals are completed
- Confirming equipment start up
- Confirming and documenting functional performance testing including testing, adjusting and balancing various systems
- Completing BSC report and final Owner acceptance
LEED CONSULTING & SUSTAINABLE DESIGN
MEP Engineering Services’ professionals seek maximum energy efficiency and environmentally-friendly components in all our designs.
MEP Engineering Services has always been interested in providing the most efficient designs in energy consumption, pollution reduction, and the elimination and use of waste. We look to the US Green Building Council (USGBC) and its LEED Green Building Rating System to improve the environmental and economic performance of commercial buildings using established or advanced industry principles, practices, materials, and standards.
- Green Building Design Begins With
- Proper building orientations
- Avoiding north facing entries
- Placement of windows/skylights to maximize natural light
- Landscaping materials to provide shade and to block the wind
- Inclusion of energy-efficient HVAC, power, and lighting features
- Detailing the building envelope to prevent heat loss and maintain good insulation
CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
We have found that clients are best served by continuity in the project team from design through construction.
The Project Manager who leads production of contract documents continues to be the person in charge during construction administration. He is fully familiar with the project’s design intent, and is the most prepared to deal with individual specifics and questions that arise during construction. Projects run more smoothly, with fewer delays and conflicts in the field.
- Our Construction Administration Services Include
- Contractor’s Submittal Review
- Pay Application Review
- Construction Directives Issued for Clarifications and Minor Changes
- Change Order Documentation, if needed
MEP Engineering Services firm prepare custom Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing (MEP) and Fire Protection (FP) engineering design solutions tailored to your needs. At MEP Engineering Services, we offer cost-effective and innovative engineering design services and solutions to your complex construction needs or problems.
