Engineering in Baton Rouge

Services in Baton Rouge

MEP engineering

• Dehumidification-focused mechanical systems — Baton Rouge's high humidity requires latent-load-optimized HVAC design
• Mold and moisture control built into MEP system selection, air distribution, and vapor barrier specifications
• Redundant cooling and backup power systems for critical facilities in a climate where loss of HVAC creates immediate life safety risk
• Energy-efficient chilled water plants and variable refrigerant flow systems tuned for mixed cooling and dehumidification loads
• Stormwater-aware site drainage coordination with MEP utility routing in high-rainfall climate zones

Structural engineering

• Wind-governed lateral design — Baton Rouge's low seismicity means wind loads control lateral structural system design
• Steel moment frames, wood shear walls, and masonry structural systems designed to the IBC and ASCE 7 for the local wind exposure category
• Foundation design for local soil conditions — expansive clays, sandy soils, and clay shrink-swell issues vary across the region
• Roof structural design with attention to local wind uplift and, where applicable, snow accumulation requirements
• Load path continuity engineering for commercial and institutional structures under governing gravity and wind demands
• ASCE 7 hurricane wind design — Baton Rouge's coastal exposure requires structural systems engineered for Category 3–5 design wind speeds

Civil engineering

• Stormwater management design per Louisiana NPDES permit requirements and local stormwater authority standards
• Site development and grading plans for Baton Rouge's active commercial and mixed-use project pipeline
• Land development civil engineering from conceptual site plan through permit-ready construction documents
• Access and utility coordination with local public works, utility providers, and state DOT for site access permits
• Paving, curb, and drainage infrastructure design for commercial, industrial, and institutional site development
• Industrial site civil engineering for energy, chemical, and processing facilities with specialized containment and drainage design
