Mechanical
Overview
As part of providing full-service MEP consulting, Dell Consulting’s mechanical engineers are experienced in providing healthy environments for multiple building types, as well as non-environmental systems.
Our design services begin with a client conference and a study to identify the mechanical system needs while developing the most effective way to achieve this goal. We are prepared to meet the sometimes conflicting goals of environmental friendliness, affordability, energy efficiency and maintainability.
Plumbing
Our team provides plumbing system designs for educational, institutional, industrial, administrative, healthcare and retail along with military, public and private sector clients. We are familiar with the plumbing codes that govern in different jurisdictions. We are up-to-date on the latest requirements for low-flow, energy conserving plumbing fixtures and equipment, including solar domestic water heating.
Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning (HVAC)
Designing building HVAC systems involves art as well as science. It is a skill acquired from many years of experience, and our engineers have that experience to draw from. We are familiar with use of unitary and applied equipment in all-air, hydronic heating and cooling, geothermal and steam systems. We have successfully designed central heating and cooling plants, high-reliability systems such as data centers and medical facilities, correctional facilities, industrial process air conditioning and ventilation including pulp and paper facilities.
Fire Suppression
Our fire protection services include fire suppression system requirement evaluations, design and development of fire suppression system design drawings and specifications. We have a thorough understanding of building codes, Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC), and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) codes for fire suppression systems. Our team is capable of developing fire suppression system performance specs or fire suppression system piping and head layouts based on computerized hydraulic calculations, whichever is required by the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) of your project.
Other
Dell Consulting’s mechanical design services include non-HVAC design such as emergency power fuel supply and generator ventilating systems, air conveying systems, compressed air and natural gas distribution.
