Ten Areas of Expertise, One Dedicated Team

Mechanical Engineering

With versatile skills and diverse specialties, our mechanical engineers offer solutions for HVAC and plumbing systems, energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and more.

Electrical Engineering

Experts in electrical equipment and design, our electrical engineers solve complex problems in power systems, telecommunications, utility coordination, and much more.

Lighting Engineers

We develop comprehensive lighting solutions that enhance architectural design and employ the latest technology for superior innovation and efficiency.

Civil Engineering

Our civil engineering team is experienced in creating the infrastructure – like flood control, road design, and earthwork – to support new municipal or private projects throughout the West.

Commissioning Services

We'll handle quality control for your project by ensuring the design and construction meet critical engineering standards for safety and performance.

Fire Protection Engineering

Our highly-specialized fire safety engineering team designs solutions to reduce the risk of fire, while helping to analyze and reduce fire-related risk with your current structure.

Geothermal Engineering

VBFA is one of the few engineering firms with extensive experience in these innovative HVAC systems, allowing us to introduce greater efficiency and lower maintenance to your project.

Refrigeration Engineering

To implement and manage large-scale refrigeration systems the right way, you need effective engineering solutions built on years of experience. Our team understands design requirements inside and out, from evaporators to cooling towers.

Business Information Modeling (BIM)

Our ability to use Revit effectively saves time and money for our clients by solving problems early in the design phase, resulting in a substantial decrease in RFIs and change orders.

Energy Modeling

For upgrades to existing buildings or new construction, our early energy analysis can help you understand, edit, and improve the long-term energy implications of your design.

Controls Engineering

Controls Engineering is a practice that uses sensors and detectors to measure the output of a controlled process.

“We strive for the same standard in all our projects. While some consider sustainable design a new trend, we have always considered it good engineering.”

– Spencer Howell, Principal

Sustainability

Sustainable Solutions for Every Service

Our engineers challenge themselves to pursue more than simply an effective solution. We gauge the true success of a project on its ability to deliver energy efficiency and an environmentally conscious design. Our sustainable focus not only benefits your organization for years to come, but helps us engineer a brighter future for all.
