Engineering in Boulder City

Services in Boulder City

MEP engineering

• High-efficiency cooling systems designed for Boulder City's extreme heat — evaporative pre-cooling, variable refrigerant flow, and chilled water plants
• Arid-climate plumbing design with water-efficient fixture specification and greywater reuse potential
• Solar-ready electrical distribution — desert climates offer some of the best PV generation potential in the country
• Dust and particulate filtration design for HVAC systems in high-wind, sandy desert environments
• Demand-controlled ventilation and cool-roof coordination for energy code compliance in extreme heat zones

Structural engineering

• Wind-governed lateral design — Boulder City'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
• Foundation design for expansive soils — southwestern soils commonly have high shrink-swell potential requiring engineered foundations
• Roof structural design with attention to local wind uplift and flat-roof drainage requirements in arid climates
• Load path continuity engineering for commercial and institutional structures under governing gravity and wind demands

Civil engineering

• Stormwater management design per Nevada NPDES permit requirements and local stormwater authority standards
• Site development and grading plans for Boulder City's active commercial and mixed-use project pipeline
• Land development civil engineering from conceptual site plan through permit-ready construction documents
• Access and utility coordination with local public works, utility providers, and state DOT for site access permits
• Paving, curb, and drainage infrastructure design for commercial, industrial, and institutional site development
• Desert stormwater retention and low-impact development design for high-intensity, short-duration rainfall events in arid climates
