Schmaus Engineering, LLC is a Florida-licensed environmental engineering firm providing consulting and subconsulting services to municipalities and engineering firms. Our focus: solid waste and landfill systems, environmental permitting and compliance, and stormwater infrastructure in central Florida.
Schmaus Engineering, LLC is a Florida-licensed professional engineering firm headquartered in Plant City, Florida. Founded in 2026 and led by Nathan Schmaus, P.E., PMP, the firm provides environmental and civil infrastructure engineering, project management, and construction-phase services to municipal clients and to the engineering firms that serve them.
Our practice rests on nearly two decades of municipal environmental engineering — solid waste and landfill systems, water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure, and FDEP permitting — combined with rigorous quality control and disciplined project delivery.
Schmaus Engineering, LLC serves as prime consultant on smaller municipal assignments and as a subconsultant to larger environmental engineering firms, bringing licensed PE capacity and municipal project experience to teams that need both.
Our mission: to give Florida’s municipalities and the engineering firms that serve them dependable, licensed environmental and infrastructure engineering — grounded in nearly two decades of water, wastewater, stormwater and solid waste experience, and delivered with the accountability of a Florida Professional Engineer and the discipline of certified project management.
Discuss Your Project →Licensed engineering, project management, and specialized consulting, delivered with the rigor and accountability you expect from a Florida-licensed professional engineer.
Solid waste and landfill systems; water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure; NPDES and FDEP permitting, including Chapter 62-701, F.A.C. (solid waste) and Title V air permits; site development, grading and drainage; and construction document preparation.
Discuss →Project planning, scheduling, scope definition, risk identification, contract administration, and client representation throughout the project lifecycle, led by a certified Project Management Professional (PMP).
Get Guidance →Construction observation, submittal and RFI review, change order analysis, payment application review, and closeout documentation — protecting your interests during construction.
Explore →Advisory services for engineering and AEC firms: workflow design, operational efficiency, project management system implementation, and technology integration.
Talk to Us →Calculation templates, design and CAD automation, and AI-assisted documentation workflows, built on our engineering standards. AI assists with drafting and administration; a licensed engineer reviews every engineering result.
View Products →Notes on engineering practice, project management, AI in the AEC industry, and running a small firm — from Nathan Schmaus, P.E., PMP.
How I am setting up a project management information system as the system of record and using an AI agent for administrative work — what it does, what it is not allowed to do, and what does not work yet.
Why I am building calculation templates, CAD routines and policy templates alongside billable work — what it costs, and where professional responsibility still applies.
How I designed the firm’s Project Brief template — what goes in, what stays out, and how it supports scope and change management.
Calculation templates, CAD workflows and project-management tools developed from established engineering and project-management references — available to license, adapt, or have built for your practice.
Disclaimer: All calculation templates, CAD workflows, and digital products are provided for preliminary or educational purposes only. They do not constitute final engineering design, and no engineer-client relationship is created by their purchase, license, or use. All outputs must be independently verified, reviewed, and signed and sealed by a professional engineer licensed in the jurisdiction where the work will be used, before use in any site-specific or structural application.

Calculation worksheets for fence post embedment, loads, drainage design and more. Each states its code basis, edition and assumptions, so the engineer of record can check it.
Request Access →CAD scripts, parametric model generators, and standardized design workflows, including FreeCAD- and progeCAD-compatible tools that cut repetitive drafting time.
See Workflows →Project setup templates, Go/No-Go evaluation frameworks, client profiles, delivery templates organized by CSI MasterFormat, and scheduling tools for engineering projects.
Get Tools →Adaptable AI usage and governance policies for engineering and AEC firms, built around professional licensure, review of AI-assisted work, and data security.
Request Policies →Project briefs organized by CSI MasterFormat, client profiles, proposal templates, and report formats, ready for your own branding.
Request Templates →Digital tools and workflows built for your engineering practice, project types, or organizational needs. Tell us what your team repeats, and we will look at whether it can be turned into a tool.
