Building Services Engineering

AY2024/2025 Semester 2

A strong emphasis is placed on the study of fire in buildings as it is recognised that fire in buiildings claims the lives of around 10-20 people per million of population each year and its total cost could amount to 1% of a nation's GDP. This course will cover the principles of enclosure fire dynamics, its applications to building fire and smoke analysis and basic design methods for fire-fighting systems. Similarly a modern high-rise building will need efficient vertical transportation, a safe potable water supply, and hygenic waste water disposal system. As such the concept of statistical analysis of demand and cost effective systems design applied to piped services and vertical transportation systems are covered.
