Capabilities

• HVAC&R

  Ä¢¹½tv engineers investigate damage incidents, failures, and installation defects in heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) equipment such as gas-fired heaters, VRV heat pumps, refrigerated warehouses, and server room cooling systems. We work with clients to provide third-party design risk services to help prevent failures.

• Fire Sprinklers

  We investigate and evaluate fire sprinkler systems. Our experts have the experience to determine the cause of failures, advise on code compliance and fire suppression capabilities, and evaluate the life-cycle needs of aging systems.

• Plumbing

  Our multidisciplinary mechanical engineering teams consult on every aspect of plumbing systems, including safety and compliance codes and regulations, installation and maintenance practices, and mechanical components and systems. Our experts consult on new designs and provide comprehensive failure analysis and life assessment testing services.

• Acoustics & Noise Control

  Our experts in acoustics and noise control are skilled in the characterization, design, and modeling of acoustical environments and devices. Our team draws on analytical and numerical methods to evaluate the mechanisms of sound generation, dominant sources, and transmission paths of various systems and components.

• Elevators

  Ä¢¹½tv's multidisciplinary mechanical engineering teams consult on every aspect of mechanized elevators, including load capacities, safety and compliance regulations, maintenance codes, and mechanical components and systems. We provide support for elevator design and installations and investigate failures when problems arise.
