ENGINEERING SMART FACILITIES TO SHAPE TOMORROW.
Each laboratory has unique needs, so at Henderson Engineers, we make it a point to learn who will be using the spaces and their work processes before settling on design solutions. Because we have completed a wide variety of successful projects, we bring a foundation of knowledge and teamwork to the table, along with the latest trends that affect and improve laboratory design.
Our team is familiar with current codes, regulations, design standards, and laboratory design guides. We understand containment and how to apply it successfully for a safe laboratory environment. Because mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems are a critical part of laboratory buildings, we work closely with the laboratory planners early in the design process so the systems are truly integrated with the building and the needs of those who use it every day.
