Engineering Features That Move, Perform + Impress

Kinetic architectural features bring movement, structure, mechanics, and design intent together in highly visible ways. From moving facade elements and clock towers to casino atriums, themed environments, public installations, and specialty architectural displays, these features require engineering that can support both the creative vision and the demands of real-world operation.

KCI, formerly McLaren Engineering Group, provides structural, mechanical, and specialty engineering support for kinetic architectural features that need to move safely, perform reliably, and integrate seamlessly with the surrounding building or environment. Our engineers address loads, movement, connections, supports, materials, tolerances, fabrication coordination, installation sequencing, maintenance access, and long-term performance for complex features that are designed to be seen, experienced, and remembered.
