MACE

MACE provides building services engineering design for a wide range of building types, scales and climatic conditions, focusing on people-friendly low energy cost-effective solutions. Our engineers are highly experienced in the design of mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) systems for office and workplace environments, for residential projects such as high specification villas and high-rise accommodation, and for large commercial developments such as shopping centres and hotels — where we combine sensitivity to the requirements of individual users with those of building management. MACE’s approach is client-focused, fast-track and climate-responsive. We optimise building services design, working towards the most efficient solutions for a particular project and its environment. Close attention to how a building will react to internal use and external conditions enables our engineers to design the most appropriate cooling/heating, air handling, lighting, ventilation, water distribution and water use systems to achieve a low energy outcome. We are particularly experienced in the design of low energy solutions for hot climates. To achieve an integrated design, we work closely with clients, architects, contractors and our engineering colleagues. We use the latest building information software techniques in the development of options to enable informed decision-making, and for the co-ordination of project documentation.
