How Apex Grid Handles This

Apex Grid Engineering is licensed in 49 states — every U.S. state except Alaska. Engineering stamping and licensure are confirmed for each project jurisdiction. We engineer mechanical engineering scopes as a standalone service or as part of a coordinated structural, MEP, civil, and geotechnical package.

We work from architectural PDFs, contractor sketches, or existing CAD files and produce stamped engineering documents, permit drawings, and calculations that building departments accept the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this engineering scope cover?

This scope covers grease exhaust duct sizing — velocity and cross-section, NFPA 96-compliant duct material and thickness, duct slope and drain provision requirements, and enclosure and clearance requirements.

When is this engineering needed?

Grease exhaust duct design requires more than a correctly sized duct — NFPA 96 mandates specific materials, velocity minimums, access panel locations, clearances to combustibles, and roof termination requirements that all affect the permit package.

What does Apex Grid deliver for this scope?

Stamped engineering documents, permit drawings, and calculations. We work from architectural PDFs, contractor sketches, or existing CAD files. We engineer mechanical engineering scopes as a standalone service or as part of a coordinated structural, MEP, civil, and geotechnical package.

Is Apex Grid licensed for my project's jurisdiction?

Apex Grid Engineering is licensed in 49 states — every U.S. state except Alaska. Engineering stamping and licensure are confirmed for each project jurisdiction.
