| 607 125 - Mechanical Systems |
|
This course consists of the selection and installation of mechanical equipment necessary to fulfill the total design requirements of modern civil-structural technology. This course will study the various means by which these requirements are translated into operating systems of interconnected hardware. Systems analyzed will include various commercial plumbing systems (sanitary drainage, storm drainage, and fire protection systems) and HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) systems. Prior to studying these systems, basic introductory information on such topics as the structural-mechanical relationship, physical considerations for mechanical systems, plumbing codes, plumbing specifications, plumbing fixtures, plumbing materials, and pipe drafting symbols will be studied. Students will produce mechanical systems plans, sometimes with accompanying schematic drawings, during each unit of instruction. These mechanical systems plans will relate to a small commercial office building.
