The Environmental Engineering group was conceived by the fundamental belief that environmental systems must be conceptualised in harmony with the architecture to support sustainable development. There are many aspects to the team’s work including: MEPF engineering; Sustainable environmental design and analysis; Architectural lighting design; Vertical and horizontal transportation; Sustainable environmental master planning; Infrastructure engineering.
Environmental Engineering
Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing and Fire Protection engineering
We design integrated active building systems that focus on resource efficiency, environmental quality and resilience. Global experience coupled with rigorous analysis underpins our ability to specify systems which respond to the local context, the climate and the needs of our clients. By developing advanced design tools and selectively adopting new technologies we maintain a constant commitment to innovation.
Sustainable Environmental Design
We work closely with the design teams to develop bespoke sustainable strategies to improve the environmental performance, from the scale of detailed building studies to conceptual masterplans. These strategies address resource consumption and environmental impacts along with the comfort, productivity, health and wellbeing. We carry out detailed analysis, using state-of-the-art analytical software and tools that have been developed in-house. These ensure integration of highest performance strategies and their continual refinement and performance benchmarking.
Vertical and Horizontal Transportation
We provide a comprehensive design and engineering service for vertical and horizontal transportation systems within buildings incorporating elevators, escalators and travelators. Our capability is backed by extensive experience of international best practice.
