MEP Engineering Services
We will work with you to identify and create a master plan for your project. This may include completing feasibility studies, identifying space needs, interior space planning, and building system analysis. Facility planning and research helps to establish the project schedule and project functional requirements, reinforces our knowledge and yours of the project and also avoids missing key information later in the process which could affect the architectural design.
Mechanical Engineering
Our mechanical engineers focus on designing HVAC systems that promote occupant comfort, energy efficiency, and indoor air quality. We tailor each system to the building’s specific needs, whether it’s a renovation or new construction, ensuring compliance with energy codes and sustainable design goals with consideration of long-term operating and maintenance concerns.
Electrical Engineering
HSR Associates’ electrical engineering team delivers safe, reliable, and scalable power systems. We provide design solutions for lighting, power distribution, emergency systems, and communications infrastructure. Our design process works with a number of vendors to incorporate low voltage, networking, fire alarm and security systems with an emphasis on energy efficiency and long-term maintainability.
Plumbing Engineering
Our plumbing engineers design systems that manage water usage effectively while meeting all regulatory requirements. From potable water supply and sanitary waste to storm drainage and specialty piping, we develop solutions that are durable, efficient, and environmentally responsible.
Building Information Modeling (BIM)
For more than 15 years, HSR has utilized Building Information Modeling (BIM) and clash detection into its workflow to enhance collaboration, accuracy, and efficiency throughout the design and construction process. This process develops intelligent 3D models that enable multidisciplinary coordination from early design phases. By using clash detection tools within the BIM environment, the firm can automatically identify and resolve conflicts between building systems—such as a duct intersecting a beam—before construction begins. This proactive approach reduces costly rework, minimizes delays, and improves communication among design team, the owner and the contractors. Ultimately, BIM and clash detection streamline project delivery, support better decision-making, and lead to higher-quality outcomes.
