Green Building Commissioning

GNA Consulting Engineers has a systematic process of ensuring that all building systems perform interactively according to the contract documents, the owner’s objectives and operational needs. This is achieved ideally by developing and documenting Owner’s Project Requirements beginning in the pre-design phase; continuing through design, with reviews of design and contract documents and continuing through construction and the warranty period with actual verification through review, testing and documentation of performance. All New York, NY consulting engineering services are constantly monitored by the GNACE founder Mr. George Nestor, P. E.
GNACE entire staff is trained in sustainable construction practices in order to keep their edge in this important field. Principles such as minimizing embodied energy, improving construction waste disposal practices, using recycled material, insuring that specified materials are recyclable, minimizing environmental impact on water and air resources, and improving indoor air quality, are studied and incorporated into our designs. By making sustainable practices an inherent part of our work, our engineers design more holistically. Sustainable design is consistent with our belief in the importance of historic preservation, quality new construction, and thoughtful adaptive reuse.
