In this episode of The Coordination Conversation, Andy Smith sits down with Brian Taylor, Director of Low Voltage at Jordan & Skala Engineers, to break down one of the most misunderstood life-safety systems in building design: Emergency Responder Radio Coverage (ERRC). ERRC is often referred to by many names (public safety DAS, two-way radio systems, emergency radio enhancement) but the requirements, enforcement, and implications can vary widely by jurisdiction. In this conversation, we ...
In Episode 3 of The Coordination Conversation, Francesca Baker (Project Manager) joins Tom Matzen (BIM Manager) to unpack what really changes when teams move from AutoCAD to Revit. We cover time management vs. detail, why a BIM kickoff is non-negotiable, how to balance live models with publish & consume, the debate on fully populated models, and what’s next with AI in BIM. If you manage MEP projects—or collaborate with architects and structural—this one’s packed with practical takeaways...
In this episode, we unpack the evolving landscape of green building programs from ENERGY STAR and NGBS to LEED and beyond. As federal sustainability policies shift, we dive into the real-world incentives, verification requirements, and performance standards that still make green certifications a smart investment. But this isn’t just about checklists. We explore how sustainability ties directly into the core of engineering, from HVAC system design and envelope performance to long-term energy ...
