Christian Kmeir, GET Group indirect owner, has a wealth of experience overseeing large-scale public works, including the creation of vital infrastructure such as wastewater treatment plants, marine works, and water supply. This article will look at mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) services provided by GET Group.
In buildings, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services go hand in hand and should never clash with each other. MEP engineering firms use specialist software such as Autodesk Revit and AutoCAD to design MEP services for buildings, consistently and constructively contributing to development projects throughout the entirety of the lifecycle.
Assisting in the areas of design, coordination, and construction, MEP engineers utilise holistic methods, employing experts in each service to ensure increased productivity and efficiency as well as improved clarity of communication.
Mechanical Engineering Services
Mechanical engineering services include heating, ventilation, and air conditioning technologies used to control air quality, temperature, and humidity within the building, as well as lifts, escalators, and other machinery.
Electrical Engineering Services
An integral part of MEP design services is designing electrical services for a building, including electrical fixtures, wiring, and conduits. Electrical systems require less space than mechanical systems, with wiring and conduit laid out in a way that minimises overall circuit lengths while preventing positioning conflicts with mechanical and plumbing infrastructure. Specialist MEP design software such as Revit is often used for interoperability.
Plumbing Engineering Services
Plumbing engineering services incorporate all systems used to transport fluids for various different purposes. Plumbing installations move fluids around the building via pipes, plumbing fixtures, valves, tanks, and other devices. MEP engineers are responsible for ensuring that there are no conflicts between plumbing, mechanical, and electrical services in order to ensure that construction of the project can proceed as smoothly and efficiently as possible.
Fire Protection Engineering Services
In addition to MEP, fire protection is also an important component in the construction of any building. In the event of an emergency, the right safety measures must be in place to avoid injury to building occupants and lessen the severity of the aftermath.
MEP systems help buildings to perform more efficiently in terms of water and energy conservation, reducing carbon footprints and improving sustainability.
About GET Group
GET Group has completed numerous large-scale projects across the Middle East and North Africa region, earning a strong reputation for not only delivering extraordinary results for its clients but also providing its people with rewarding careers.
Rooted in the values of quality, integrity, relationship, innovation, and safety, GET Group protects its employees along with the environment by implementing robust health, safety, and environmental policies. Whatever the size and scope of the project, GET Group always adheres to rigorous health and safety standards, providing its people with specialist training to avoid injuries and ensuring they keep up to date with the latest safety practices.
GET Group’s highly skilled professionals have extensive experience designing MEP systems to ensure the safety and efficiency of operations and effective maintenance of facilities. MEP engineering services are crucial in ensuring spaces are suitable for human occupancy. However, when designed in isolation, conflicts in equipment locations can arise. GET Group works on mechanical, electrical and plumbing installations simultaneously, guaranteeing a reduction in installation costs, improved performance and code compliance, optimisation of material requirements, and consolidated software that speeds up the design process. GET Group’s team of engineers are experts in the various MEP systems used in industrial, commercial, and residential buildings.
GET Group has been proud to participate in the creation of vital infrastructure and landmark buildings, including Al Messila Resort & VIP Spa, coastguard bases, the Al Majida Palace, and a hospital in Mount Lebanon incorporating internal and external clinics as well as laboratories, patient rooms, and surgical facilities.
