3. Create and build mechanical devices.
Mainly with HVAC or machine design.
HVAC – Heating, ventilation & air-conditioning
Machine design: on hardware, including automobile
engines, computers, and washing machines.
What is Mechanical
Engineering?
4. Deals with the technology of electricity.
Electrical engineers work on components, devices and
systems such as microchips and power station generators.
Examples: Security system, lighting point, electrical
substation.
What is Electrical
Engineering?
5. Client comes out with conceptual brief.
Architect provide schematic design.
Meeting consist of:
Client’s manager
Architect
Civil and Structure engineer (C&S)
Mechanical and Electrical engineer (M&E)
Quantity Surveyor (QS)
Landscape Architect
Interior Designer
Acoustic consultant
Environmental consultant
PROCESS OF A PROJECT
6. C&S engineer design road and drainage, retaining wall,
sewerage.
C&S engineer designs the frame of building by coordinating with
the M&E engineer.
Building plan ready and submitted to local authority for
approval.
QS prepare the bill of quantity
to incorporate the requirements in the tender documentation.
M&E engineer prepares the schedule of prices for tenderer.
Tenderer
issues the tender documents and drawings
analyse the given documents before construction process starts.
7. Constructions can be started after appointing a contractor.
Site meetings
to discuss details of the process such as Clarification and suitable
ways for installation.
Testing and Commissioning:
Check, inspect and test project component.
C.C.C (Certificate of Completion Compliance) is issued
8. Roles of Mechanical & Electrical Engineers in construction:
PRE-CONSTRUCTION
Analyze arcitect’s
drawings
Advise client the
suitability and
appropriateness of the
equipment
Incorporate their
respective requirements
into architecture
drawing
Eg. Location of AC, types
of lifts, fire system layout
DURING CONSTRUCTION
Supervise the process of
construction.
To ensure there is no error in
the process of construction.
POST CONSTRUCTION
Operation and manual
documentation
Test and commissioning
Maintenance
To ensure safety of end
user
10. 1. Feasibilities Studies
Environmental impact
assessments
Planning permission
Site surveys
Technical issue
Noise
Limit
Design tolerance
Time scale
Economic issues
Cost
Building Regulation
Fire protection
2. Concept Design
Satisfy clients key
success criteria
Comply with the
current statutory
legislation
Eg. Building
regulation
3.Design Brief
Clarification:
future scope of
services, actual
scope of work,
design
deliverables,
unique project
requirements
Confirmation:
technical basis,
design standards
4.Scheme Design Stage
Producing and
analyzing the design
to get the desired
result
If its not satisfying, its
being revise
Process of Drawings
11. 6. Construction
Design Information
Detail drawings
are used to
facilitate during
the construction
process
7. Construction
Process of building
8. Design Feedback
To improve
current and
future projects
Benefits:
Ensuring a
better
understanding of
client’s
requirements
5. Detail Design Stage
Specific calculation is
implemented into the
drawings
Eg. Pipework, electrical
load, smoke extract
ventilation, energy
consumption
Process of Drawings
