AI Engineering for Structural and MEP

Think of this as a very smart digital co-engineer that helps design and check structural and MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) systems for buildings—faster and with fewer mistakes—by automating much of the repetitive engineering work.

Executive Brief

Business Problem Solved

Reduces manual, error-prone engineering work in structural and MEP design (e.g., calculations, coordination between disciplines, drawing updates), cutting design cycles and rework while improving consistency and compliance with standards.

Value Drivers

Cost reduction from automating repetitive engineering tasksFaster design cycles and project turnaroundLower rework and clash/coordination issues between structural and MEPImproved code compliance and documentation qualityBetter use of senior engineers’ time on complex, high-value decisions
