Coordinate mechanical designs with architectural, structural, electrical, plumbing, and other project disciplines. Participate in site visits to document existing conditions and monitor construction progress. Assist with equipment selection, system layouts, schedules, details, and construction documentation. Communicate with project managers, clients, contractors, review agencies, and other project stakeholders.
