MEP design and training

We design the systems that make a building work.

Mechanical, electrical and plumbing, from load calculation through to handover. And we train the engineers who do it.

Air goes where the pressure tells it to. Deciding where that is, is the work.

What we do

Four disciplines, one standard.

Training leads, because the shortage in this market is not equipment. It is engineers who can calculate.

01MEP trainingStructured mechanical, electrical and plumbing training that closes the gap between an architectural drawing and a system that works. Engineers leave able to design, calculate, select and deliver.
02Engineering consultancyTechnical and commercial judgement on complex building projects. We work with developers, architects and contractors to make mechanical systems a driver of building value rather than a cost centre.
03MEP installationEnd to end installation of mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems for commercial, industrial and complex residential projects. Engineered designs turned into working infrastructure.
04Project managementOversight that keeps an engineering design intact from drawing to handover, on programme and on budget, with the predictability that lets everyone else plan around it.

Why some buildings cost so much to keep cool.

An air conditioning system too big for the building will switch on and off all day, cool without drying the air, and cost more to run every month. The right size is worked out before anything is bought.

The programme

HVAC Design.

Design. Calculate. Select. Deliver.

Taught against live project conditions by engineers who answer for these systems on site. Scheduling is flexible, so ask us about the next intake.

Full curriculum
  1. 01

    Cooling load calculation

    Work out what a building actually needs before anything gets selected. Sensible and latent loads, occupancy assumptions and the judgement calls that decide whether a system is right sized or expensively wrong.

    Carrier HAP

  2. 02

    Duct design and layout

    Sizing, routing and pressure drop, then laying it out against a real floor plan with real obstructions. Where the theory meets roof hips, fire walls and a ceiling void somebody else has already claimed.

  3. 03

    Equipment selection

    Choosing plant against a calculated load rather than a rule of thumb. Schedules, selection criteria, and understanding the cost consequences of each decision over the life of the building.

  4. 04

    Chilled water systems

    Central plant, pipe sizing, pumps and distribution. When a chilled water system is the right answer, when it is not, and how to design one that can actually be commissioned.

  5. 05

    Air handling units

    AHU design and specification, coil selection and the air side of the system, treated as an engineering problem rather than a catalogue exercise.

  6. 06

    Rooftop and packaged systems

    Rooftop units, DX and packaged plant. Structural and access constraints, and the trade-offs that make a rooftop the right or wrong call for a given building.

Delivered work

30+ design projects, homes to industrial plant.
