• 200 - 300 Employee

• Mechanical Engineer

  • May 1987 - Jul 2009

  Extensive engineering experience encompassing all aspects of mechanical systems and including all phases of design ranging from schematic conceptualization through construction completion for both new and renovated facilities, large and small. HVAC systems design is primary focus, with some experience in plumbing, fire protection, and refrigeration design. Documentation experience includes existing system analysis, master planning, deficiency reports, construction documents, specifications, commissioning, and LEED submissions. CAD production (Autocad and Microstation) self-performed or directing others. Market focus: first 10 years primarily retail; next 7 years primarily banks, churches, and schools; last 5 years primarily health care. Typical design duties include system selection, life cycle cost analysis, code compliance evaluation, load calculation, energy modeling, duct and hydronic piping design, HVAC equipment selection, acoustical analysis, and controls specification.
