ENGdoc were on site in Casla, Co. Galway today compiling the Mechanical and Electrical O&M Manuals for the Mylan building projects.
Mylan have been undertaking a number of expansion projects in Connemara this year. ENGdoc are delighted to be working on behalf of the Tim Kelly Group to compile the Operation & Maintenance (O&M) manuals and ‘as built’ drawings for these projects.
Our services consist of carrying our two site visits per project. The first, prior to the installation of ceilings, is to redline the 1st fix elements. This consists mainly of mechanical services (pipework & ventilation) and electrical containment. Our second visit is carried out just prior to handover. Here, we redline all 2nd fix elements – noting socket & switches, lighting, fire detection, security and final mechanical services outlets.
Due to the complex nature of the site, an initial point cloud survey was conducted and the plantroom, including existing equipment and pipework, were replicated in a 3D Revit model. Using the engineer’s schematic design drawings and in consultation with the mechanical contractor, we then modelled up the new pipework and equipment to be installed.
This pipework required co-ordination with the existing environment as well as the new flue and electrical systems before a final layout was agreed upon. In order to achieve maximum dimensional accuracy, all elements of plant and equipment were imported as families from the manufacturer’s websites and incorporated into the model..
This allows us to produce comprehensive and detailed O&M’s for both the mechanical and electrical services installations. These O&M’s are then taken by the end user to enable them to operate and maintain their building efficiently.
