3-D Design Modeling; Piping Analysis / Installation Drawings


PDC Engineering, Inc. is a Chicago-based consulting firm that specializes in 3-D piping design. Contractors, end-users and larger engineering firms hire PDC for their specialty skills. This outsourcing is considerably more economical than staffing a department with these unique technical skills on a permanent basis. A cost comparison demonstrates an engineering savings of 60–80%. We are the Midwest experts in full bore (siphonic) roof drain design.
