Kevin Butler, Henderson’s esports practice leader, recently represented Henderson at the 2021 EsportsNext conference in Chicago. Hosted by the Esports Trade Association (ESTA), the annual conference brings together industry professionals to exchange ideas and insights on the rapidly evolving competitive gaming industry. A variety of topics were presented, and we’ve shared takeaways from conference sessions…
Over the past few months I’ve been sharing my thoughts on Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) and how, here at Henderson Engineers, we’re exploring DfMA in our design process to increase efficiencies and cost-effective outcomes. In my recent article about the DFMA process, I speculated that using a standard, repeatable duct module for a…
I’ve written a few articles recently on Building Information Modeling (BIM) and how it’s crucial to our design process at Henderson Engineers. BIM uses data to generate digital representations of a facility’s physical and functional characteristics, including the building systems we engineer. But BIM isn’t a singular idea or just 3D modeling software; it’s an…
Healthcare representatives from Henderson Engineers recently attended the 2021 Environments for Aging Expo & Conference (EFA Expo), an annual event focused on senior living design. The three-day conference provided a wealth of information on how senior living is progressing across the country. While only 13% of the U.S. population was above 65 in 2013, the…
I recently wrote an article exploring the meaning of quality in relation to engineering. I described how we define quality at Henderson Engineers within our design process, and how our firm’s end deliverable is quality work. But our process – the actions we need to take to achieve quality work – doesn’t live in some…
Healthcare representatives from both Henderson Engineers and Henderson Building Solutions recently attended Vanderbilt University’s Healthcare Summit and the American Society of Healthcare Engineers (ASHE) Annual Conferences. A wealth of information was shared, networking was back in practice, and we were excited to see our friends in person again. As you can imagine, discussions revolved around…
Quality is integral to everything we do at Henderson Engineers, and our application of building Information Modeling (BIM) is no exception. To achieve quality design with BIM you must also have a quality model. But if you’re looking to cover up a bad design with a good model, you’ve missed the point. As our Director…
Have you considered what “quality” really is? It seems straightforward enough. We know quality when we see it. We know quality when we interact with it. But do we know what it means? As Director of Engineering at Henderson Engineers, driving an emphasis on quality is central to my role. I oversee staff training and…
We continuously strive to innovate at Henderson Engineers. One way we’re doing so is by using Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) in our projects. (Check out this post I wrote for a brief overview of DfMA.) Our first opportunity to implement DfMA presented itself at the end of 2020. A client approached us to…
According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. experiences an average of 70,000 wildfires every year. The fires and ensuing clouds of smoke present a challenge to the safety and well-being of building occupants. This guide highlights multiple strategies for limiting wildfire smoke from entering into buildings. These recommendations are based on…
Implementing dynamic methods to innovate with design is standard practice at Henderson Engineers. One of the tools we rely on to help us determine the best system design for a space is Building Information Modeling (BIM). BIM is a process that uses data to generate digital representations of a facility’s physical and functional characteristics, including…
With more than 50 years of experience designing building systems for retail and healthcare spaces, adapting to the growing medtail trend has been seamless for Henderson Engineers. While it’s not a new concept, medtail is gaining traction as an avenue for healthcare providers to increase patient convenience by capitalizing on available retail space. Henderson’s retail…
