DESIGN WITH DELIVERY IN MIND

01 WHY WESCON

Designed to be installed.

Whether we're designing systems, reviewing a design, producing shop drawings or optimising a project, the same principle applies: it has to work on site, not just on paper.

01.1 /

Technically sound

Engineering that meets the relevant requirements and performs as intended.

01.2 /

Practical by design

Solutions informed by constructability, coordination and installation.

01.3 /

Commercially aware

Understanding the cost, time and complexity involved in delivering a project.

02 OUR EXPERTISE

The support you need.
Where it matters.

From a focused design review to a shop drawing package or complete mechanical design, we help you resolve the details so the design can be built as intended.

02.1Documentation & construction supportClear shop drawings and practical technical support to help your team build with confidence.

We work through the design information, space constraints and coordination requirements to prepare documentation your team can use. We flag gaps and unresolved details early, so you know what needs attention before installation.

  • Shop drawings & technical coordination
  • Schematics & equipment schedules
  • Technical queries & construction-stage advice
02.2Design review & optimisationFind what will cause problems on site, and where the design could work better for your project.

We check key assumptions, sizing and buildability, then recommend improvements backed by engineering reasoning. You get a clear view of the options and their implications for performance, installation, cost and maintenance.

  • System performance & sizing reviews
  • Constructability & coordination review
  • Design optimisation & practical alternatives
02.3Mechanical design & consultancyHeating, cooling and ventilation design shaped around the building, its occupants and how it will be installed.

We develop the design around your brief, the building's requirements and how the systems will be installed, operated and maintained. Calculations and equipment selections support clear recommendations, with cost and programme considered along the way.

  • Heating, cooling & ventilation design
  • Load calculations & equipment selection
  • Detailed design documentation

03 OUR APPROACH

Serious about the work.
Easy to work with.

Every design is tested against one question: will it work on site, not just on paper? Whether we're reviewing a design, preparing shop drawings or developing a new system, we focus on what will make the greatest difference to your project.

03.1 /

Understand your project.

We listen to what you need, understand the constraints and agree the scope, deliverables and programme. We ask questions early, so the work addresses the right problem and everyone knows what to expect.

03.2 /

Find a practical way forward.

We test assumptions, work through the details and explain the trade-offs. Experience, calculations and digital tools help us compare options and check the work. Recommendations balance performance, constructability and cost, with clear reasons behind them.

03.3 /

Keep you informed.

We raise issues early and keep you updated before you need to chase. You receive clear drawings, findings or advice, with outstanding decisions explained. We work through questions with you and agree what happens next.

04 ABOUT WESCON

Building services engineering.
A contractor's perspective.

Wescon is a Melbourne-based mechanical building servicesconsultancy founded by Blake Wesley, drawing on experience in mechanical contracting, design and project delivery.

Experience on the contracting side shapes how we think. We consider how a design will be coordinated, installed and maintained, alongside its performance and cost. Our aim is engineering that performs as intended and can be installed within real project constraints.

Whether you need a design developed from the ground up or support with an existing project, we take the time to understand what matters to you, explain our advice clearly and help you work through the decisions ahead.
