What we design

  • Biotech lab MEP: BSL-rated ventilation, fume-hood exhaust, lab gases, and redundant HVAC for research buildings near Stanford Research Park
  • All-electric and reach-code compliance — Palo Alto's aggressive electrification ordinances push heat-pump and induction design ahead of state code
  • Stanford-adjacent institutional work: high-occupancy lecture halls, vivarium ventilation, and clean-power distribution
  • Seismic bracing of lab and MEP systems in near-fault seismic design categories — equipment anchorage is a plan-check focal point
