Facilities

Safety, reliability, long-term performance, function, cost, and resilient design. These are some of the most important elements of a new structure and are the core of RESPEC’s facility design focus. Paired with over half a century of experience, we have a strong project history of designing and planning commercial and public safety, education, healthcare, industrial, and military facilities in difficult environments, such as the Arctic and Antarctic. Our full-service engineering, planning, and survey team specializes in new structures, renovations of existing structures, energy upgrades, design/build deliveries, programming studies, and commissioning services.

Making the Grade

RESPEC has the broad, well-developed expertise in civil engineering to provide solutions in locations where the temperatures range from 100 degrees below to 100 degrees above, where snowfall reaches 10 feet or more, where design-wind loads exceed 150 mph, and where access and communications are the lifelines of the communities. Whether you are looking for transportation, utility, or site design, we have the technical skills to develop solutions and the management skills to guide the process from funding to construction. Our in-house staff of environmental analysts, planners, engineers, surveyors, and GIS and CAD technicians will help make your project a success.

Civil design for challenging geography is our bread and butter: urban to rural, arctic to rainforest, and everywhere in between.

Keeping the Lights On

RESPEC’s electrical engineering team brings a broad base of experience to support your needs. From electrical services and systems for new and existing facilities to design support for utility and transportation capital projects, or in a dense urban environment or a remote arctic or subarctic location, our electrical team can provide the design you need to keep your project on schedule and within budget. With our planning and design expertise, we can also help you commission your existing project or plan for your future. Whether your goal is improving energy performance, diagnosing operational or maintenance deficiencies, or planning for future capital improvements, we can help you achieve it.

Electrical designs robust enough for military and healthcare scenarios, eye-catching enough for schools and cultural centers.

Designs that will Take the Heat

RESPEC offers wide-ranging fire protection engineering (FPE) services that fall into five major categories: suppression, detection, life safety, commissioning and retro-commissioning, and alarm and mass notification. Our experience includes traditional water-phased suppression and special suppression for sensitive environments and equipment. We provide designs for fire pumps; storage tanks; fire, heat and flame detection; and smoke control. Mass notification and associated audibility analyses can also be provided by our skilled professionals.

Providing feasible, cost-effective designs to both simple and complex fire protection projects in urban and remote locations.

Efficient, Reliable, Comfort

RESPEC brings a complete spectrum of mechanical design and support services to the table. We provide our clients with tailored solutions that meet their needs and culminate in a successful project. Our engineers possess wide-ranging skills that are effectively applied to both simple and complex systems in temperate and cold-region environments and urban or remote locations. RESPEC offers mechanical engineering support at every project stage, including concept development, planning, Request for Proposal development, design services, and bid-phase and construction support. Our mechanical experience ranges from utilities to simple building remodels to entirely new facilities.

Safety, reliability, long-term performance, function, and cost are always at the core of our mechanical team’s project goals.

Providing the Support You Need

Using technical sophistication combined with practical design solutions, RESPEC’s structural group provides structural engineering for a wide variety of clients and projects. We protect our clients’ projects against some of the most severe environmental conditions seen anywhere in the world: massive snow loads, high coastal winds, earthquakes, and extreme cold. From artwork to foundations to multistoried facilities, we have the experience and technical expertise to make your project a success no matter what the challenge.

Whether your next building will feature steel, concrete, or timber construction, our structural team is up to the job.
