Engineering in Omaha

Services in Omaha

MEP engineering

• Four-season MEP systems — Omaha's continental climate demands heating and cooling systems designed for extreme temperature ranges
• Freeze protection design for piping, HVAC equipment, and domestic water systems in Omaha's sub-zero Nebraska winters.
• High-efficiency heating plant design for Omaha — coordinated with Nebraska natural gas utility infrastructure and backup heating capacity.
• Humidity management for Omaha's winter-dry conditions — building envelope and mechanical systems address low RH in the Nebraska heating season.
• Snow and ice load coordination between MEP rooftop equipment and structural engineering for Omaha's heavy-snow Nebraska sites.

Structural engineering

• Wind-governed lateral design — Omaha's low seismicity means wind loads control lateral structural system design
• Steel moment frames, wood shear walls, and masonry structural systems designed to the IBC and ASCE 7 for Omaha's local wind exposure category.
• Foundation design for Omaha's local soil conditions — expansive clays, sandy soils, and clay shrink-swell issues vary across the area and require site-specific geotechnical coordination.
• Roof structural design for Omaha — with attention to wind uplift and applicable Nebraska snow accumulation requirements.
• Load path continuity engineering for Omaha's commercial and institutional structures under governing gravity and Nebraska wind demands.
• High-wind zone structural design — Omaha is in an active tornado and severe thunderstorm corridor requiring enhanced wind uplift resistance

Civil engineering

• Stormwater management design per Nebraska NPDES permit requirements and local stormwater authority standards for Omaha's agricultural and food-processing industrial base.
• Site development and grading plans for Omaha's active commercial and mixed-use project pipeline
• Land development civil engineering for Omaha's agricultural and food-processing industrial base — from conceptual site plan through permit-ready construction documents.
• Access and utility coordination with Omaha public works, utility providers, and the Nebraska DOT for site access permits.
• Paving, curb, and drainage infrastructure design for Omaha's commercial, industrial, and institutional site development.
• Agricultural and food processing facility civil engineering for Omaha's agricultural and food-processing industrial base — grading, truck access, and drainage design.
