 Learning Key Outcomes

At the end of the training course, participants should be able to:
  1. Understand  the basis to determine the cold water storage demand and size the transfer pump accordingly
  2. Select the suitable type of pumping system to meet the water usage requirements namely direct, variable speed drive, pneumatic tank
  3. Select the piping material amongst the many choices of plastic and metal
  4. Calculate the piping size for cold water in accordance to the BS6700 standard methodology of Loading Units
  5. Take preventive measures to minimize the impact of water hammer to the pipe lines by way of design and selection of the right equipment
  6. Determine the stack size of Soil, Waste, Vent (SWV) using Discharge Unit methodology and understand the constraints impose on branch discharge pipe in particular on the gradient to minimize blockage
  7. Observe poorly installed plumbing and SWV systems which are preventable
