Multifamily & Developments

Civil & Drainage
Flood-plain & detention requirements
Houston's flat terrain and high water table mean drainage and detention design carry real weight in permitting, especially after updated post-2017 floodplain standards. We design site civil work around current requirements, not outdated assumptions.
Soil & Foundation
Soft, high-moisture soils
Gulf Coast clay and high groundwater levels behave differently than inland Texas soil. Foundation systems are engineered around local geotechnical conditions, not a generic statewide spec.
MEP & Climate
Year-round humidity load
HVAC and moisture-control systems are sized for sustained Gulf Coast humidity, not a mild-climate baseline, to protect equipment, materials, and indoor air quality long-term.
