1 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment

2 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Equipment often defines the function of the building, making a building fit the role it was intended to perform. For instance, a bank will need a vault, teller equipment and security equipment to function as a bank.

3 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Equipment selections will need to be coordinated for many reasons: Installation Structural support Utilities Processes

4 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Installation Connectors or brackets to be installed in structure prior to installation of equipment? Sequence of installation requirement for access and staging? Delivery to site? Storage of equipment prior to installation?

5 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Structural support Foundation support of equipment load Lateral bracing of large equipment Structural isolation of equipment to reduce vibration or noise

6 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Utilities to operate equipment Electric Gas (natural or liquid propane) Water Waste Other (refer to equipment manufacturer’s literature)

7 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Processes Access for using equipment Access for maintenance and service Storage, access and removal of raw materials or finished products

8 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Designers, contractors and owners must work closely to select, design, specify, procure, install and maintain equipment. Building owners may play the primary role in selecting and procuring equipment, as the success of their business depends on the performance of the equipment.

9 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Businesses may come to designers and contractors with a prescribed list of equipment requirements. For instance, commercial kitchen equipment is usually chosen, laid out, and shown on a drawing by a kitchen equipment specialist paid by the owner. The Architect must then coordinate the gas, electric, plumbing, etc.

10 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Equipment Equipment requirements may be governed by licensing or franchise agreements. Bulk purchasing Prescribed brands and performance

11 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Vehicle Equipment Controlling the travel, parking, storage and repair of vehicles in a critical function of some buildings. Other buildings provide services that are only possible because of the equipment, such as oil change or dry cleaners.

12 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Pedestrian Equipment Security, safety and limiting access are some reasons to control pedestrian access. One example is turnstiles.

13 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Commercial Equipment Equipment that allows a business to function as intended, such as laundry equipment for a Laundromat, vending equipment for a snack area, etc.

14 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Commercial Equipment Mercantile Equipment For use in retail establishments Vending Equipment Soda, snack and sundry machines Laundry Equipment Office Equipment

15 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Residential Equipment Appliances Ranges, stoves, refrigerators, dishwashers, ice makers, microwaves, etc. Stairs Pre-fabricated units

16 Construction Methods and Materials Equipment Foodservice Equipment Food Storage Food Preparation Cooking Cleaning and Disposal
