Water supply systems in the UK have changed a lot in the past few decades, but many of the infrastructure systems were installed during Victorian times, so we have an interesting history and resulting systems. In recent years there have been a number of developments to appliances, fittings and usage patterns that should be taken into account when designing a modern system. The implications of the switch from fossil fuels to renewables and more sustainable sources of energy are considered along with the importance of insulation.
The benefits and safety issues associated with water reuse systems and legionella control are discussed and the implications of different pipework layouts. The use of water balances for designing various systems are introduced and considerder along with more traditional design methodologies.
In this one-day course, the different sources of water and types of water that can be used in a building are examined and the importance of wholesome water will be looked at. Water Regulations and Byelaws are covered along with water related Building Regulations and Standards that are applicable in the UK.
This course may provide you with an update on the LUNA project and other pipe sizing initiatives is given. The course ends with a quiz to help you ground your knowledge.
Learning Outcomes:
- Discover why UK sinks and basins have two taps
- Understand dead legs, vestigial branches, circulation systems and point of use heaters
- Find out how to avoid water hammer
- The implications of water efficiency on the design of water supply systems and retrofitting in particular
- The importance of understanding the requirements and limitations of national Regulations and Byelaws
This course would benefit engineers who have little experience of designing domestic hot and cold water services, and would equally suit those already engaged in this subject who feel they need an update on the latest legislation, Standards and technology.
