SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is at the core of our engineering practice.
In all projects, Kohler Ronan seeks to design sustainable building systems which enhance occupied spaces and are socially and environmentally responsible. The firm is proud of its extensive expertise and innovative approach in the field of sustainable design and is a member of the US Green Building Council (USGBC). Nearly 20 of our engineers are Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Accredited Professionals (LEED AP), while one of our partners has earned his Well AP, Fitwel Ambassador, and Certified Passive House Designer designations.
Kohler Ronan is dedicated to our collective low-carbon future and is pleased to join a growing number of MEP/FP industry leaders in accepting the Carbon Leadership Forum (CLF)’s MEP 2040 Challenge. As a signatory, the firm is committed to “advocate for and achieve” net zero operational and embodied carbon by 2030 and 2040 respectively, across all its projects. We can help you make that same commitment.
PHILOSOPHY
Engineering excellence and client partnering is our goal.
Central to our philosophy is the desire to not only meet, but exceed client expectations. To this end, each of our engineers conducts thorough due diligence and engages in effective communication to assist our clients in making informed project decisions. Further, we look to provide innovative, reliable, energy-efficient engineering and design services which maintain the integrity of architecture and minimize the engineering impact of our designs. Combined with unsurpassed client service, the result is a portfolio of successfully completed projects and numerous long-term partnerships and client relationships.
APPROACH
We seek to become an extension of the architect’s office in pursuit of a common goal.
Kohler Ronan was established to support unique projects and the architects that envision them. We work in partnership to build, restore, and transform buildings to improve their function and extend their life. Our collaboration is not just with the current design and executive architects, but with all the architects throughout the history of the building. Similarly, our partnership welcomes and incorporates all stakeholders of the building including the owner’s leadership team, employees, facilities staff, and any end-users or building occupants.
Our project approach begins with research into the historical perspective of the existing architecture and the complementing building systems. This process requires extensive field investigation to understand in detail all relevant mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, and technology systems’ configurations and how they are currently operated. We document this information in easy-to-read, color-coded sketches and equipment/system schedules. These work products facilitate discussions and demonstrate opportunities both regarding the development of the current project and possible long-term capital planning.
