Synopsis

For undergraduate-level courses in Building Mechanical Systems, Building Electrical Systems, and Illumination offered to students in Construction Technology, Architecture, Civil Technology, and Interior Design and Building Engineering.

Designed to bridge the ever-widening gap between textbooks and the realities that confront engineering, and construction professionals, this text provides an overview of the principles and applications of all basic mechanical and electrical systems―with a focus on what, why, and basic design data examples. It explores emerging technology and environmental issues, and makes reference to essential engineering calculations and condensed data to illustrate principles.

A propos du livre

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

This new edition of a classic in the field updates and refines the original work, a complete and practical introduction to the design of mechanical and electrical systems in buildings.

The authors are widely recognized as leading authorities in the field and have extensive professional and academic experience. Herein is an outstanding combination of the basic concepts underlying design plus a practical approach to handling a wide variety of realistic design situations.

Features new to this second edition include:

• A chapter on noise and vibration in mechanical and electrical systems. This will assist the reader in dealing with this problem through design.
• A large number of new problems and applications.
• Incorporation of the latest communication technology as applied to building systems.
• The chapter on lighting design has been enhanced with added architectural considerations.
• Chapters on communications, electrical design, and lighting design have been reorganized to provide smoother flow through the material.
• Many new illustrations to support the presentation.
