Can do

HVAC & Plumbing systems design

By adopting a unified global engineering design software, all disciplines (architects, MEP, structural, civil, and other engineers) can collaborate seamlessly on a single platform

Complimentary offer​

​

We’re happy to offer a concept design as a starting point. As a courtesy to new clients, this initial design proposal is provided at no charge and will be included upon finalizing the contract​

This will be an initial HVAC design including, heat load & cooling load calculations with 2D/3D building view & peak building loads for plant sizing (via advanced recognised software)​

In addition, an initial estimate of your building energy performance will be included!

​​

 

After signing the contract the HVAC System Type, system schematic and preliminary equipment selection and sizes to assist you in identifying suitable manufacturers that align with your budget.

​

​To provide you with an accurate initial HVAC design, we'll need the architectural plan views with detailed information that includes:

Key Details to Share:

  1. Floor Plans in DWG format (preferably in DXF format):

    • Indicate room usage (e.g., office, server room, lab).

    • Include mechanical/electrical rooms, roof access, or chiller plant space.

  2. Ceiling Heights & Building Sections:

    • Helps with ductwork/piping layout and sizing.

  3. Heat-Generating Equipment or Areas:

    • Such as kitchens, server rooms, machinery, etc.

  4. Window Locations and Orientation:

    • Impacts cooling load due to solar gain.

  5. Preferred Equipment Location:

    • Rooftop, basement, external pad, etc.

  6. Any Special Requirements:

    • Noise limits, zoning restrictions, redundancy, energy efficiency targets (LEED, BREEAM, etc.)

​​

Architectural Inputs

  • Floor plans, sections, elevations

  • Room dimensions

  • Window sizes, SHGC & U-values

  • Orientation

  • Occupancy type

  • Fire strategy (compartmentation, smoke extract needs)

  • Ceiling void heights

  • Equipment schedule (for heat gains)

  • Construction materials (walls, roof, glazing)

MEP Inputs

  • Electrical availability (power for HVAC)

  • Plumbing (water supply, drainage)

  • Firefighting constraints (shafts, pump rooms)

  • IT/ELV requirements

  • Acoustics requirements

Client Requirements

  • Comfort temperature (e.g., 22–24°C)

  • Ventilation strategy

  • Noise criteria (NC35, RC30, etc.)

  • Sustainability targets (LEED, BREEAM, local codes)

  • Budget level

​​​​​​

After signing the contract, 2D/3D plantroom modelling will commence
