Lab renovations are complex — but they don’t have to be.
Vanderweil Engineers’ John Saad and Drew Simpson will take the stage at the 2026 Lab Design Conference alongside @ikmarchitecture Architecture’s Brian P. Roth and Jonathan Lusin, AIA to break down real‑world approaches to planning and executing smarter lab upgrades focused on renovated buildings.

It’s #NationalLibraryWeek! Libraries are at the heart of strong communities—fueling learning, ideas, and opportunity for all.
We are fortunate to have worked on many library projects over the years. A selection of our library project portfolio is featured above. #Community #Libraries
A milestone worth celebrating — and building on! Vanderweil has surpassed 300 sustainable-certified projects, with 54% achieving the highest standards of sustainable design excellence like LEED Platinum or Gold. 🌱
This isn't just a number. It represents millions of square feet designed to reduce environmental impact, conserve resources, and create healthier spaces for the people who use them every day.

This #EarthWeek, we're asking a bigger question: Are we measuring carbon the right way?
Operational carbon is critical—but it’s only half the story. At Vanderweil, we optimize 𝐓𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐛𝐨𝐧: operational 𝐩𝐥𝐮𝐬 embodied carbon. True zero carbon is about how buildings operate and how they’re built. 🌱
Solar PV can cut operational emissions but can increase embodied carbon. Is it worth it? 𝐘𝐞𝐬—𝐢𝐟 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐲.
With @lemessurier_ we found the following carbon paybacks:
🅿️ Parking canopies: ~5 years
☀️ Rooftop PV: ~4‑years
✅ Best practices can cut this to ~2 years
How? Passive load reduction, using existing structures, and low‑embodied‑carbon materials.

This week we’re celebrating #EarthWeek 🌎
At Vanderweil, sustainability isn’t just a goal—it’s part of how we work every day:
♻️ One of the first engineering firm signatories of both the AIA 2030 and
MEP 2040 Commitments — pledging net zero operational carbon by 2030 and zero total carbon by 2040
🏢 Our Boston headquarters is a fossil fuel-free building
⚡ Advancing energy-efficient, high-performance design for all clients
#EarthWeek2026 #Sustainability #GreenBuilding
🌍 Kicking off #EarthWeek early, sharing our work on the @scenichudson Center for Environmental Protection & Regeneration — a fossil fuel-free, net zero energy headquarters built from five repurposed historic structures in Poughkeepsie, NY. Vanderweil provided MEP/FP engineering for the office and public gathering space, which achieved ultra-low embodied carbon and net-positive operational carbon.
🌱 Net Zero Energy Design 🌿 Green roofs & natural ventilation 🏭 Adaptive reuse of five historic structures
