The demands for environmental services in buildings are greater today than ever before. To maintain acceptable environmental conditions with greater reliability, more complex systems are needed. Reducing a building’s environmental footprint is also a key driver for many projects.
Beca has the skill and practical experience to design engineering systems that aim to reduce construction and installation problems. The result is a ‘total building concept’ aimed at satisfying occupant needs and the drive for energy economy.
Our services cover:
- central or distributed plant air conditioning systems, including chilled beams, air handling units (constant volume, multi-zone, variable air volume) and fan coil units
- ventilation systems including kitchen exhausts, car parks and operating theatres
- building management systems and controls
- energy modelling, frequently associated with Green Star ratings
- medical gas system design.
We have applied these systems in many specialist buildings across numerous countries and industry sectors including retail, healthcare, hospitality, commercial office buildings, industrial process applications, correctional facilities, stadia and tall buildings and communication towers.
With extensive experience from a group-wide resource of over 100 engineers, our teams have the design and management capability to be able to offer traditional and innovative solutions to local and international projects. Beca engineers have been involved with leading Green Star, GreenMark and LEED projects, including pre-assessments, energy modelling, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis for new and retrofit design projects.
