    Study Notes

    Mechanical Installations

    • Categories include heating, ventilation, air conditioning, fire protection, gas systems, refrigeration, and compressed air.
    • Essential for maintaining environmental comfort and safety in buildings.

    Pipework

    • Required for various mechanical installations such as fire water systems and HVAC refrigerant circulation.
    • Insulation is crucial for keeping refrigerant cool and minimizing energy loss.
    • Special measurement considerations apply to:
      • Prescribed cut lengths (higher cost)
      • Pipes chased into walls (higher installation cost)
    • Fittings larger than 60mm in diameter must be measured separately, reflecting increased expense.

    Pipe Trenching

    • Method A involves trenches not exceeding 1000mm deep, with specific bedding and filling requirements.
    • Method B focuses on insulation, protective wrappings, coatings, and linings for pipework.

    Ductwork

    • Ducting types include:
      • Rectangular low pressure
      • Round low pressure
      • Other rectangular ducting
    • Ducting fittings and flexible ducts play a critical role in ensuring airflow and system efficiency.

    Insulation and Protection for Ductwork

    • Essential for maintaining energy efficiency and performance.
    • Measurements taken for insulation and protective coverings are expressed in square meters.

    Duct Calculations

    • For rectangular low pressure galvanised ducting, dimensions are crucial for accurate area calculation.
    • Categories help determine installation specifications and costs based on size and shape changes.

    Ducting Fittings and Flexible Ducting

    • Essential components measured separately for accurate costing and effective system performance.

    Diffusers, Grilles, and Accessories

    • Various types of air distribution manufactures such as diffusers, grilles, attenuators, dampers, and filters must be cataloged and accounted for in the installation process.

    Lift, Hoist, Escalator and Conveyor Installations

    • Lift installations include various components such as cars, power units, ropes, and safety mechanisms.
    • Hoists and conveyors follow similar measurement principles as lifts, maintaining consistency in project planning.

    General Considerations

    • Essential to perform thorough testing and commissioning.
    • Necessary documentation includes drawings, manuals, and identification markers.
    • Collaboration with electrical work and other trades is vital for cohesive installations.
