Electric Vehicle Architecture and Engineering Services

Having architectural and engineering services in-house for make-ready and installation of EV chargers we can streamline the process and ensure efficient, high-quality outcomes. Some essential architectural and engineering services provided include:

1. Site Assessment and Feasibility Studies: Before starting the make-ready and installation process, we will evaluate the site's suitability for EV chargers. In-house architects and engineers can conduct site assessments, analyzing factors such as available space, electrical capacity, and potential constraints or obstacles.

2. Design and Layout Planning: Based on the site assessment, our in-house architects and engineers can develop a comprehensive design and layout plan for the EV charging stations. This includes determining the optimal location for chargers, designing pathways for cable routing, and ensuring adequate space for maneuvering and parking.

3. Electrical System Design: Engineers with expertise in electrical systems design the necessary electrical infrastructure for the EV chargers, including service upgrades, transformers, switchgear, and distribution panels. They can also ensure that the system complies with local codes and regulations.

4. Structural Engineering: If the installation requires structural modifications or support systems, such as foundations, mounting structures, or bollards, in-house structural engineers can design and analyze these elements to ensure safety and stability.

5. Civil Engineering: In-house civil engineers can help with grading, drainage, and stormwater management, as well as paving and landscaping designs around the EV charging stations. They can also address accessibility requirements, such as 2011 ADA compliance.

6. Permitting and Code Compliance: Our architectural and engineering team can help navigate the complex permitting process, ensuring that all required permits are obtained and that the installation complies with local, state, and federal regulations.

7. Coordination with Utilities: Engineers can coordinate with utility companies to ensure smooth integration of the EV chargers into the existing electrical grid, securing necessary agreements and approvals for grid connection.

8. Construction Documents: Our in-house team can help develop detailed construction drawings, specifications, and other documents needed for the make-ready and installation process.

9. Quality Control and Inspections: During the installation process, our architectural and engineering team can provide on-site supervision and quality control, ensuring that the work is performed according to the plans and specifications. They can also conduct inspections and testing to verify compliance with codes and regulations.

10. Post-Installation Support: Our in-house team can offer ongoing support, such as troubleshooting, system optimization, and coordinating any necessary maintenance or repairs.
