MEP Engineering for Healthcare

Coordinated HVAC, electrical, and plumbing design, with emergency-power engineering and studies for healthcare buildings and renovations.

Overview

Healthcare design connects the needs of patients and staff with the systems that keep a building operating. TPS coordinates ventilation, heating and cooling, building plumbing, electrical distribution, and emergency-power requirements with the architect and owner. For renovations, the starting point is the clinical use of each space, the existing infrastructure, and the work that can happen while the facility remains occupied. The proposal identifies the disciplines, studies, and construction support required for the assignment.

Building systems

MEP scope for healthcare

Ventilation and space use

Develop HVAC loads and ventilation around the room program and occupancy. Coordinate equipment, ductwork, controls, and the pressure relationships identified in the design criteria.

Plumbing and equipment connections

Design domestic water, sanitary, and hot-water recirculation around fixtures and equipment. Coordinate routes and connections with mechanical systems and available building space.

Power and continuity

Align mechanical equipment loads with electrical distribution and the emergency-power scope. Identify the short-circuit, coordination, and arc-flash inputs needed for the proposed systems.

Scope the assignment

A clearer brief. A coordinated deliverable.

What to send us

  • Project location, facility type, and room program
  • Current architectural plans and equipment schedules
  • Available mechanical, electrical, and plumbing drawings
  • Occupied areas, shutdown restrictions, and construction phases
  • Owner design criteria and target review dates

What we can deliver

  • Mechanical loads, ventilation calculations, and equipment schedules
  • Coordinated MEP plans and specifications for the agreed design stage
  • Electrical study reports identified in the proposal
  • Scoped submittal review, RFI response, and field observation

We confirm disciplines, licensing, sealing, and deliverables for the project location before agreeing to the scope.

What makes this market different

Sector-specific challenges

Branch separation under NEC 517

Life-safety, critical, and equipment branches must remain electrically and physically separated end-to-end. We engineer the separation into the design and verify it during construction.

Protective-device coordination

Essential electrical systems need a coordination strategy tied to their operating requirements. We establish the study scope and applicable requirements with the project team.

NFPA 110 chapter 8 acceptance testing

Generator and ATS acceptance testing must follow a defined protocol with documented results that surveyors will ask to see.

Renovation without downtime

The owner’s operating plan sets the available shutdown windows. We coordinate design phasing and temporary-power needs around the restrictions identified for the project.
