Mechnical/Electrical/Plumbing/Fire Protection Engineering

Sutton-Kennerly's Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing Engineering Group applies its considerable expertise to projects that range from replacing the mechanical systems of a university residence hall to engineering equipment arrangements and piping design for the world's largest wood-burning power plant.

Our project list includes churches, schools and university buildings, prisons/criminal justice centers, transportation facilities, laboratories, aviation facilities, industrial plants and commercial buildings of all types and many more. Our clients include major industries in manufacturing, textiles, printing, distribution, etc., municipalities, universities, school systems, churches and other commercial and institutional entities.

We provide engineering investigations, studies, phased designs through construction documents, and construction administration for building services such as HVAC, electrical and piping/plumbing.

In addition, SKA mechanical/electrical/plumbing engineers are specialists in the design and renovation of industrial processes, central boiler plants (solid, liquid, and gas fuels), cogeneration plants, central chilled water plants, central compressed air plants, and the storage/pumping/piping of chemicals.
