MEP First Test Review
2 Classifications of Buildings - ANS-Gross S.F. = overall length and width
Net S.F. = Useable space
7D Bim Models - ANS-Models which show completed installation with attached documents
such as maintenance
Backlog - ANS-List of all the jobs you have that you have signed contracts for
Basis of design - ANS-submittals that need to be respected as long as they meet the
conditions
Brown Sites - ANS-Abandoned buildings and factories that are repurposed/taken down to
reuse the space
Building Operating Systems - ANS-
Building Operating Systems - ANS-Transportation
Processing
Automation: Environmental Controls
Calculating GPM Flow - ANS-GPM = RxAx 0.0104
R = Rainfall intensity
A = Roof Area in sf
Combination Sewer System - ANS-when sewer and drainage water is in the same pipe
CSI - ANS-Construction Specification institute
Developmental Length - ANS-Straight Pipe
Electrical Systems - ANS-Electrical Power
Lighting
Auxiliary
Special Systems
Equivalent Length - ANS-fitting and valve change to equivalent length of the same size pipe
For every foot of rise how much pressure do you lose? - ANS-.433 psi
Gray Water Lines - ANS-typically purple lines that send water to be reused and reclaimed
Green Field - ANS-Land that has never been developed
How many gallons of water per acre during a 1" rain? - ANS-Answer:
1/12 (0.8333)x43560 = 3630 cu ft
1 cu ft / .13368 = approx 7.48 gals / cu ft
3630 x 7.48 = 27,152 gals
IPC - ANS-International Plumbing Code
LEED - ANS-Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
Mechanical Systems - ANS-HVAC
Site Utilities
Fire Protection
Special Systems: Process/Refineries/Laboratory
Percolation - ANS-how well does the ground accept water
Performance Code - ANS-Performance criteria are based on function of the component
PH - ANS-optimal level is from 6.5 to 8.5 ph
PHT - ANS-Pressure lost due to vertical travel of the pipe
Potable Water - ANS-Water that is safe for consumption
