Since the preparation of proper construction drawings is very important, during the workshop the proper preparation of plumbing plans (drawings) will also be discussed, and the attendees should also know the basics of quantity take-off of waterline system fittings.

Design, Construction, and Maintenance of Low-Cost Water Supply Systems/Scheme
Course Description:
The Water Distribution System Design Workshop for Mid & High-rise Buildings is not limited to lessons on how to prepare design drawings and calculations, but also includes discussions that will start from what are the common sources of Water Supply, the ideal Method of Water Distribution System to be used in buildings of different types of occupancy. Since the preparation of Proper Construction Drawings is very important, during the Workshop, proper preparation of Plumbing Plans (Drawings) will also be discussed, the attendees should also know the Basics in Quantity Take-off of Waterline System Fittings. Lastly, the Workshop will be focussed on the “Step by Step Procedure of How to Design the Components of a Domestic Water Distribution System from Tanks to Pumps.
Objectives:
To update them on the latest and modern methods in Building Design and Construction, especially, the trend now in Construction Sites is Multi Tasking. The Programs will also help our professionals know how to comply with Green Building Codes and Ordinances pertaining to Sustainability System Design.
