Problems Faced by Architects Designing Healthcare Projects in Texas, And How Our MEP Engineers Solve Them

1 Strict Healthcare Codes & Regulatory Compliance

Problem

  • FGI Guidelines for hospitals and outpatient facilities
  • ASHRAE 170 for ventilation and pressurization
  • NFPA codes for fire protection, emergency power, and medical gas
  • State and local AHJ requirements

Solution

  • Healthcare-focused MEP designs aligned with FGI, ASHRAE, and NFPA standards
  • Early code analysis to avoid late-stage redesigns
  • Permit-ready MEP drawings that reduce AHJ comments
  • Smooth coordination during authority reviews for faster approvals

2 Complex HVAC & Airflow Requirements for Infection Control

Problem

  • Healthcare spaces require precise air changes, filtration, and pressure relationships
  • Operating Rooms, ICUs, Isolation Rooms, and Labs have strict airflow rules
  • Incorrect pressurization can compromise patient safety and inspections

Solution

  • Advanced HVAC design meeting ASHRAE 170 airflow and pressure requirements
  • Proper zoning of critical and non-critical areas
  • HEPA filtration, pressure control, and redundancy planning
  • Designs that protect patient safety while supporting architectural intent

3 Tight Ceiling Spaces & MEP Coordination Challenges

Problem

  • Healthcare buildings have dense MEP systems: ducts, piping, medical gas, conduits
  • Limited ceiling heights lead to clashes between architectural, structural, and MEP systems
  • Poor coordination causes RFIs, construction delays, and on-site rework

Solution

  • 3D coordinated MEP layouts using BIM workflows
  • Early clash detection to eliminate conflicts before construction
  • Optimized routing of ducts, pipes, and cable trays
  • Efficient use of ceiling and shaft spaces without architectural compromises

4 Reliable Power & Emergency Backup Requirements

Problem

  • Hospitals and clinics require uninterrupted power for life-safety systems
  • Emergency generators, ATS, and critical branches must meet NFPA 99 & 110
  • Architects face challenges integrating large electrical infrastructure into layouts

Solution

  • Code-compliant emergency power system design
  • Proper segregation of normal, critical, and life-safety branches
  • Redundant power strategies for continuous operations
  • Space-efficient electrical room and generator layouts

5 Medical Gas & Specialized Plumbing System Complexity

Problem

  • Medical gas systems (oxygen, vacuum, nitrous oxide) require strict compliance
  • Improper routing or zoning leads to inspection failures
  • Coordination issues between plumbing, equipment, and architecture

Solution

  • NFPA 99–compliant medical gas system design
  • Clear zoning, labeling, and valve box coordination
  • Seamless integration with architectural and clinical layouts
  • Inspection-ready documentation that avoids delays

6 Energy Efficiency vs. Performance Expectations

Problem

  • Healthcare facilities operate 24/7 and have high energy consumption
  • Owners demand efficiency without sacrificing comfort or reliability
  • Architects must meet sustainability goals under tight budgets

Solution

  • Energy-efficient HVAC and electrical system design
  • Smart equipment selection and load optimization
  • Designs that reduce operational costs while meeting healthcare performance standards
  • Support for energy compliance and sustainability objectives

7 Fast-Track Schedules & High Stake Deadlines

Problem

  • Healthcare projects often have aggressive timelines
  • Delays impact patient services, operations, and revenue
  • Architects are under pressure to deliver coordinated permit sets quickly

Solution

  • Fast-track MEP design delivery tailored to project milestones
  • Clear, coordinated drawings ready for permit submission
  • Responsive engineering support during design development and reviews
  • Reduced redesign cycles and smoother construction phases
