At Henneman, we provide engineering and technology solutions that allow our clients to view the future with confidence. For more than 50 years, we have combined innovation, energy efficiency, and safety to offer a full range of services, including: mechanical, electrical, and structural engineering; plumbing and fire protection design; commissioning; and information technology. We approach each project with an emphasis on sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and quality - an approach that has guided us through thousands of successful projects in the fields of energy, education, healthcare, industry, commerce, and government.
Since its founding, Henneman Engineering has transformed from a small group of engineers in Champaign, Illinois to a firm with engineers and technical employees in four Midwest cities. Projects range from engineering studies to $200 million building facilities. The mission of Henneman has remained the same: to provide innovative, cost-effective and quality engineering solutions that are responsive to client's needs in a professional and profitable manner. Engineering has always been a Henneman family tradition with roots in electrical engineering and construction going back to the 1910s in Chicago.
At Henneman Engineering, we understand that in commercial facilities, time is money. Our experienced professionals design buildings that respond to the complex business environment of today and of the future. Using the latest technology, we design "intelligent" mechanical and electrical systems, creating an environment that conserves valuable resources and responds to the needs of employees and patrons. Our extensive knowledge of lighting, air movement, controls and sophisticated data/communications networks, results in buildings with carefully integrated systems that help our clients accomplish their mission.
Henneman Engineering has the ability and experience to provide complete custom lighting designs, as an integrated part of the MEP/IT services we regularly provide. And as an added bonus, we have professional engineers that are lighting certified. We know the importance that facilities place on lighting that is not only functional, but beautiful and unique. Healthcare facilities have particular needs for high quality lighting as an important part of a healing environment. We recognize the difference between the vision and the realization.
Our commitment to innovative structural engineering is pushing us in new directions. With more than 40 years of experience and tradition, we are moving into the future with a focus on environmental sustainability, security, and performance-based engineering. We are dedicated to building safe, livable, healthy communities. What has not changed is our relationship with our clients. It remains our highest priority. Our qualified staff of structural engineers have extensive structural design and analysis experience involving industrial, municipal, institutional, and systems utilizing a wide variety of construction materials such as steel, concrete, pre-stressed concrete, wood, and masonry.
The Henneman philosophy is simple: Each client is our top priority. We specialize in providing innovative, energy-efficient, and cost-effective solutions that respond directly to each client's needs. Our nationwide reputation as a leader in mechanical, electrical, structural, and plumbing engineering has been fostered by our experienced staff of engineers. At Henneman Engineering, we believe that our ability to deliver strong results to our clients depends on our ability to provide an enriching work environment for our employees.
We make your building work-heating, cooling, air quality, plumbing and fire protection. Our engineers are experts at sustainable design, using the latest technology and modeling to create energy-efficient hospitals, schools, labs, offices and public facilities. Integrated controls mean building operations can be monitored and adjusted with pinpoint accuracy. We can prepare life-cycle analyses on existing buildings to help with phasing in new technology.
Solar electric, also known as photovoltaics (PV), converts sunlight directly into electricity. Sunlight excites electrons in a solar panel and sends the electrons through an inverter that changes those photons into usable electricity for your home or business. With help from the sun, PV systems are able to produce an endless supply of clean, non-polluting energy which is completely safe for our environment. One great thing about PV is that it can be sized and installed to fit almost anywhere, allowing everyone to harness the power of the sun.
