MEP Engineering & Design
Mechanical & HVAC Design
HVAC, ventilation, and process utility design built around your building’s loads, use, and operating constraints.
Overview
Mechanical design starts with what the building needs to do. TPS develops heating and cooling loads, ventilation requirements, equipment selections, air distribution, and control sequences for commercial, industrial, and institutional facilities. For manufacturing and process environments, the scope can include industrial ventilation, dust collection, chilled water, boiler and steam systems, and the utilities supporting production.
What's included
Scope of work
Heating and cooling load calculations and energy modeling
Ventilation, ductwork, and air distribution design
Equipment selection and mechanical schedules
Control sequences and coordination with electrical loads
Industrial ventilation and dust collection
Chilled water, boiler, steam, and process utility infrastructure
Methodology
How the engagement runs
We agree on inputs, responsibilities, and deliverables before the work begins, then keep the design decisions connected through each stage.
Mechanical & HVAC Design: how the engagement runs
- 1Document the operating conditionsReview occupancy, production needs, climate, existing equipment, and the available architectural plans. Identify ventilation needs and constraints on equipment access or replacement.
- 2Calculate loads and select systemsDevelop the load basis and compare equipment approaches against the project’s capacity, energy, space, and operating requirements.
- 3Coordinate distribution and controlsLay out ductwork and utilities, coordinate equipment power and plumbing connections, and develop control sequences with the rest of the design team.
- 4Issue the mechanical packagePrepare plans, schedules, calculations, and specifications for the agreed stage. Support mechanical submittals, RFIs, and field observations where included.

FAQ
Common questions
Does TPS design industrial HVAC and process utilities?+
Yes. TPS’s mechanical capability includes industrial HVAC, ventilation and dust collection, chilled water, boiler and steam systems, and process utility infrastructure. The proposal defines which systems and operating conditions the design will cover.
What information is needed for HVAC design?+
Useful inputs include plans, building use and occupancy, equipment or process heat loads, operating hours, and information about existing systems. For renovations, tell us what needs to stay operational during construction.
Can mechanical design be coordinated in Revit?+
Yes. TPS uses Revit and BIM coordination to review mechanical systems against the architectural and structural models and coordinate equipment, ducts, piping, and access with the other disciplines.
