Unique multidisciplinary approach, recognized expertise

Working on older buildings requires creativity and in-depth knowledge in the preservation of materials, such as masonry, and an understanding of the overall energy performance of the building including the building envelope (facade and roofing).

There are many challenges that must be addressed when modernizing while preserving these older buildings. Close collaboration with each discipline, as well as with the client and the contractors is vital. Expertise and experience are essential when undertaking projects of this magnitude. Our teams at CIMA+ master all the particularities inherent in this type of project including aspects related to the structure or materials, electromechanics, and sustainable development.

CIMA+ is recognized for developing unconventional and highly creative multidisciplinary solutions and has demonstrated the ability to complete these projects all while respecting and preserving the heritage. From the ability to integrate the electromechanical systems, to finding ways to connect old to new, CIMA+ has been awarded and recognized not only for the quality of the mechanical, electrical or structural engineering, but for integrating all of this into the architecture, thus preserving and maintaining the beauty of the historical building.
