Mechanical Engineering
Specialist Mechanical Design
Our mechanical engineering specialists are on a mission to help companies achieve their sustainability goals by embracing passive and energy efficient design techniques. CPW’s innovative design solutions are practical and well-integrated, no matter the project.
We aim to provide easy-to-maintain mechanical systems such as ventilation, heating and cooling that are simple to operate and meet the needs of each individual client. Great mechanical design prioritises health and comfort alongside usability.
From initial designs to final implementation, our experienced engineers work seamlessly with your team to provide bespoke solutions. Working alongside a wide range of in-house specialisms such as sustainability, vertical transport and acoustics, our mechanical engineers can find the right solution for your project, whether you have plans for a new build or retrofit.
We work across large and small scale projects in a variety of sectors including:
Featured mechanical engineering projects
Amazon Sortation Centre
CPW designed the most energy efficient and sustainable lighting, ventilation, domestic water supply and a full mechanical and electrical services design at Amazon’s new 334,000ft2 sortation centre in Medway.
Frequently asked questions
-
Mechanical engineering is the science behind the design of operational machinery, from small scale components to larger facilities and systems. It encompasses core concepts such as mechanics, physics, thermodynamics and materials science.
-
Mechanical engineers within a construction project are responsible for consulting on and designing the mechanical plant systems on a project, such as the air conditioning, ventilation systems, heating and cooling. They will make sure these systems interact with each other to keep a comfortable temperature and ensure that the fresh air supply and humidity is sufficient to keep air pollution concentration at safe levels. They will utilise computer aided design/modelling to create technical project plans.
-
Efficient mechanical engineering is essential for heating, cooling and ventilation systems that promote health, comfort and sustainability. This is what makes a building a nice place to be for its occupants and ensures the building functions as it should.
