Introduce the plumbing design framework, covering water distribution and drainage, gravity and pressurized systems, flush tank and flush valve choices, fixture planning, and relevant codes (NBC, IPC, UPC, CIBC, ASP).
Design hospital plumbing by calculating water demand, sizing underground and roof tanks, and applying IPC, NBC, and UPC codes; use client questionnaires and a water balance diagram to guide planning.
Learn the fundamentals of plumbing design, including water supply and drainage systems, distribution methods (direct, gravity, pressurized, combined), and essential flow concepts.
Learn how codes and standards govern plumbing design, including NBC, IPC, UPC, and CBC tables for water supply, drainage, rainwater, fixtures, and pipe sizing, with practical examples and calculations.
Learn practical water supply calculations for buildings, including underground and overhead tank sizing, pump flow, occupant load, NBC/CBC and Ashrae 62.1 methods, and friction losses using Darcy's equation.
Size domestic and flushing water supply pipes using the water supply fixture unit method. Calculate fixture units and select pipe sizes per IPC tables and velocity assumptions.
Apply the WSF method to gravity distribution pipe sizing for domestic and flushing tanks, calculate flows and tank volumes with q=t and q=a v, and compare Darcy's and Hazen-Williams approaches.
Explore pump head calculation using the Hazen-Williams method, focusing on friction losses, static head, and practical Excel workflows to size pipes, fittings, and boosters.
Learn to perform drainage fixture unit calculations, size waste and soil pipes using NBC/IPC tables, and design fixtures such as water closets, urinals, wash basins, showers, bathtubs, and floor drains.
Explore types of pipes and fittings in plumbing, and how material, fluid, temperature, and pressure guide selection to minimize friction losses.
Identify the four valve categories used in plumbing: isolation, throttling, backflow prevention, and safety. Explore valve types such as gate, globe, butterfly, ball, and check valves, plus strainers.
Learn how manholes, traps, and interceptors move wastewater from building to sewer, including private versus public manholes, inspection chambers, gully traps, and grease and oil interceptors.
Explore water supply, drainage, terrace, external layouts, and schematics for plumbing. Size pipes per wsf-dfu and analyze fixture units for toilets, urinals, and wash basins in gravity and hydropneumatic zones.
Learn to interpret typical drainage layouts, including soil and waste pipes, stacks, venting, and floor cleanouts, with emphasis on 45 degree fittings and slope discipline.
Design external manhole layouts and calculate invert levels and depths from reference levels using slopes such as 1:200 and 1:300, with Excel sheets for documentation.
Calculate manhole and catch basin depths using an Excel sheet, applying architect or client reference levels, depth and invert level formulas, and zone-by-zone sequencing to determine discharge points.
Master essential AutoCAD basic commands, set millimeter units, and create or edit drawings with text, dimensions, blocks, copies, moves, rotates, trims, offsets, hatch, and polyline tools.
