The demands placed on environmental services in buildings today are significantly greater than in the past. Systems are required to maintain acceptable environmental conditions with great reliability. Higher energy costs are driving system economics while system demands are making them more complex. To plan economic services it is important to establish agreed design concepts. To achieve this, Beca engages the client early in the development of the design.

Beca’s engineers are concerned not only with conventional and proven techniques but are also deeply involved in the development and evaluation of pioneer systems. In the field of energy management systems in particular, Beca is able to offer advisory services and associated retrofit design services. Experience gained on such projects is utilised in the design of new projects.

Beca has both the design expertise and practical experience to design systems that minimise construction and installation problems and result in a total building concept aimed at satisfying occupant needs and targeting the quest for energy economy.

Beca expertise covers:
· Air handling units, variable air volume, fan coil unit systems
· Central or distributed plant systems including energy modelling
· Ventilation systems including kitchen exhausts, car park, plant rooms
· Building management systems and controls including close climate control systems
