Projects

Case studies

Critical-environment, process, and facility mechanical work across Northern Colorado — delivered as design-build, as a subcontractor to a general contractor, and as competitively bid plan and spec. Each case study states the challenge, the approach, the mechanical scope, the constraint we had to work inside, and the result.
