Plumbing Engineering

Plumbing design that reduces RFIs in the field. Fixture counts, water/gas demand, sanitary venting, and storm drainage worked through with the civil and structural teams so things route cleanly.

How we work

  1. 1

    Fixture & demand tabulation

    We tabulate fixture units, water and gas demand, and DFUs from the architectural plans — not from a similar past project.

  2. 2

    Riser & routing design

    Domestic, sanitary, vent, storm, and gas risers stacked and routed with structural and architectural so wet walls, soffits, and roof drains land where they should.

  3. 3

    Specialty systems

    Grease, sand, and oil interceptors; medical gas; water hammer arrestors; backflow prevention — sized and located to meet plumbing code and the operator's workflow.

  4. 4

    Submittal & CA support

    We review submittals against the spec, answer field RFIs, and adjust isometrics when site conditions require it.

Frequently asked

Do you size grease interceptors?
Yes — based on fixture flow, drain length, and the local jurisdiction's sizing methodology, whether gravity or hydromechanical.
Can you design medical gas?
Yes, for dental, outpatient, and procedural environments. We follow NFPA 99 and coordinate with the equipment vendor's alarm and zone valve requirements.
Do you handle storm drainage?
Yes — roof drain sizing, overflow strategy, and coordination with civil for site discharge are part of our standard plumbing scope.
