Sustainable/Green Building Design Services

Schnackel Engineers’ constant focus on finding optimized solutions to all engineering challenges results in the development of the most sustainable designs possible. All of our design services take full advantage of the power of our proprietary AI-enhanced design technology to perform all routing and sizing of the various MEP systems to achieve all of the design objectives of the project with the lowest possible material and labor burden, highest energy efficiency and lowest carbon footprint possible. The application of this technology results in sustainability built into every project we are engaged in – Green Design Every Time™ – only available at Schnackel Engineers.

In addition to our continuous focus on sustainability, we also offer a wide range of Green Building certification services including the USGBC’s LEED programs, WELL Building certification programs, Build-it-Green certification services and numerous other energy compliance and optimization services. We can be your overall program administrator for any of these programs, directing the efforts of all consultants and contractors, or we can provide MEP/FP/IT support for your third party certification management agency. Either way, you grasp the knowledge base of a highly experienced engineering team leading your sustainability initiatives, reducing risk every step of the way.
