This course is concerned primarily with the systems comprising building services: sources and distribution of water and elimination of waste, energy supplies, application of electrical power, hydraulics, vertical transport, fire protection in buildings, security, telecommunications, as well as air conditioning, heating and ventilating of buildings. It focuses on equipment selection and space allocations for these services. This allows students to undertake preliminary selection and sizing of systems, and to translate them into space and planning requirements for complex buildings. Design exercises and field investigation form part of the study.
