Commercial building exterior at dusk, an example of a facility with engineered mechanical and electrical systems
Mechanical & Electrical Design — Lincoln, Nebraska

Engineering the systems commercial buildings run on.

Salt Creek Engineering designs the HVAC and electrical systems behind Lincoln's offices, logistics facilities, and public buildings — from load calculations through construction documents.

Featured project — Lincoln, NE

Cutting peak HVAC load 30% for a Lincoln distribution center.

What we design

Two disciplines, one set of drawings.

We engineer the mechanical and electrical systems for commercial buildings as one coordinated scope — so your HVAC and power design land on the same page, not two competing ones.

Mechanical (HVAC) Design

Load calculations, duct and piping layout, and equipment selection sized to how the building is actually used.

  • Heating & cooling load analysis
  • Air distribution & ductwork
  • Equipment specification

Electrical Design

Power distribution, panel schedules, and lighting design engineered to code and to the load your building actually carries.

  • Power distribution & panels
  • Lighting design & controls
  • Low-voltage & life safety

Energy & Sustainability

Energy modeling, commissioning support, and code compliance — including systems design for on-site solar.

  • Energy modeling
  • Commissioning support
  • ASHRAE 90.1 / IECC compliance
How a project runs

From first load calc to final inspection.

01

Programming & Load Analysis

We study the building's use, occupancy, and equipment to establish real heating, cooling, and electrical loads before anything is drawn.

02

Design Development

System layouts, equipment selection, and coordination between mechanical and electrical scopes, reviewed against budget and code.

03

Construction Documents & CA

Stamped drawings ready for permit and bid, with construction administration support through startup and commissioning.

Featured project

A distribution center rethought from the mechanical room out.

A Lincoln-area logistics facility came to us with a cooling system fighting its own layout. We re-ran the load calculations, redesigned the air distribution, and coordinated the electrical service to match — without a facility shutdown.

Who's stamping the drawings

Licensed engineers, not a design-build shop.

Every set of drawings that leaves Salt Creek is reviewed and stamped by a Nebraska-licensed Professional Engineer — mechanical and electrical alike.

We've designed HVAC and electrical systems for offices, distribution centers, and public facilities across Lancaster County, and we hold the credentials to back it.
