  • Connecting through high speed systems designs to service Data Centres, secure data protection for sensitive business developments

Passive House Design

Passive house design is the leading, internationally-recognised standard for achieving exemplary energy-efficiency standards in buildings. JAK have vast experience providing complete design services for housing developments which are entirely low energy consumption houses. Passive houses do not just meet the standards set out by the Passive House Institute, they exceed them. Our accredited passive house engineers carry out Passive House Planning Package calculations, air tightness surveys, thermal bridging analysis and dwelling comparison’s when providing designs for passive houses.

Our understanding & constant involvement in local & European legislative directives allows us to forecast change at early stages and keep our clients & colleagues reliably informed.

Feasibility Studies

Understanding the environment in which you are working is essential. JAK provide thorough feasibility studies at our client’s request.  We are equipped to deal with all aspects of engineering studies, enabling us to gather information and asses parameters for our clients which will assist them in making key decisions on potential projects and site developments.

A thorough feasibility study can help identify if a given project should be undertaken by determining costs and risks associated with various areas of the project development. Areas covered are but not limited to:

  • Heating option comparisons
  • Serviced site requirement
  • Energy usage comparisons
  • Life cycle performance for systems
  • Running costs & maintenance
  • Sinking fund assessment
  • Site Optimisation
  • Renewable technologies comparisons

 

Fire Engineering

Our approach to fire engineering ensures we deal with early and potentially dangerous challenges within the area of building development. We provide early assessment and advice for fire prevention and detection strategies within a variety of building types.

Static detection systems, sprinkler, vapour mist & Ansul systems all fall under the remit of our professional engineers.
