1.1.7 System Layout

This exchange indicates required quantities and sizes of plumbing equipment (pumps, valves, boilers, filters) based on system performance. It does not account for particular piping layout, therefore calculated pressure drop is approximated based on elevation and nominal horizontal routing.

This exchange enables an architect to revise the facility spatial configuration plans based on the results of the coordination at the end of Design Schematic. Required information includes:

This exchange provides detailed information for connectivity and placement of pipes, including the following:
