We're not your average engineering firm.

RDHers have helped shape the field through practice and research, with work that has informed technical guidance, codes, and standards.

Build your career alongside leaders in the field. Learn from people who have advanced the industry, bring your own perspective to complex problems, and develop the knowledge and judgment to make your own contributions.

How We Work

Bring your own thinking
Established knowledge and processes provide an important foundation, but not every problem has a standard answer. We teach people to ask sharper questions, test assumptions, and develop new ways of thinking about complex problems.
As your expertise develops, so does the responsibility to exercise technical judgment and contribute to the thinking of the people around you.

Knowledge creation is part of the work
Research and practice are closely connected. Our project experience informs areas of study, while research and testing give us new knowledge to bring back to our work.
RDHers also contribute to the body of knowledge that shapes building science practice, including technical guidance, codes and standards, publications, and industry education.

Buildings are systems
Buildings do not perform as a collection of independent parts. Understanding the relationships between materials and assemblies, building systems, occupants, and climate is fundamental to building science.
Our work brings together different disciplines and areas of expertise. That perspective helps us understand how decisions in one area affect another and make more informed decisions about building performance.
