2020 Workshop Series
February 6-7 in Phoenix, AZ
Henderson Engineers, 5343 N. 16th Street, Suite 460, Phoenix, AZ 85016

Building off our Basic Plumbing Design I class, we will continue with a more in-depth look at a complete building design. It is essential when designing a building that we not only drill down into the detail but that we also take a step back and see a global view of our building in relationship with all other trades. As plumbing engineers and designers we are tasked with providing code compliant, well planned and thought-out plumbing systems that protect the health and welfare of the public and that are owner and maintenance friendly. This class we will put pen to paper. We will layout our basic plumbing systems, size these systems, calculate and size the equipment and coordinate with the architectural layout, structural elements of the building and other trades inside and outside the building. It is not required to have taken Basic Plumbing Design I course.*  This course is happening just prior to the CPD Review Class at the same location.

The section will review the basics of storm drain pipe sizing, routing and coordination - Storm Sizing, Routing & Coordination – 2 Hours

Learning Objectives:

• Properly size storm and overflow drain piping
• Properly select equipment needed within the storm drainage system.
• Correctly coordinate pipe routing with building and structure within the building
• Understand correct pipe material to be used based upon application and ground movement.

The section will review the basics of domestic water pipe sizing, routing and coordination - Domestic Cold Water Sizing – 1.5 Hours, Domestic Hot Water Sizing – 0.5 Hour, Domestic Heating Water Equipment Sizing and Selection – 1.5 Hours 

Learning Objectives:

• Properly size domestic cold water piping
• Properly size domestic hot water piping
• Properly select and size the domestic heating water equipment to fit specific projects.
• Correctly coordinate space allocations within the building
• Understand how to correctly size domestic hot water return systems.

This section provides the basic plumbing design of sanitary sewer systems.  The program will review the basics of sanitary sewer pipe sizing, routing and coordination - Sanitary Sewer Sizing, Routing & Coordination – 2.5 Hours 

Learning Objectives:

• Properly size sanitary sewer piping
• Properly size sanitary vent piping
• Properly select equipment needed within the sanitary sewer system.
• Correctly coordinate pipe routing with building and structure within the building
• Understand correct pipe material to be used based upon application and ground movement.

The section will review the basics of natural gas pipe sizing, routing and coordination - Natural Gas Sizing, Routing & Coordination – 1.5 Hours 

Learning Objectives:

• Properly size natural gas piping
• Properly select equipment needed within the natural gas system.
• Correctly coordinate pipe routing with site utilities, building and structure within the building

The section will review the basics understanding of coordination between trades and dealing with structural conflicts within the building. Plumbing System Coordination – 2.5 Hours 

Learning Objectives:

• Review and discuss the continual coordination that must occur throughout design and construction.
• How do deal with structural conflicts and correctly understanding limitations within the plumbing design
• Correctly coordinate pipe routing with building and structure within the building

This session will focus on the strategy, tactics and implementation necessary to hold onto those valuable assets, your repeat clients.

We all tend to communicate in the way most comfortable to us, rather than translating what we're trying to get across into our peer's best for of communication. Dive into different communication approaches to create more impact, and get your message across with less friction. Check out this webinar for practice scenarios and new approaches! 

This is the third webinar in the three-part series.

This one-hour seminar will provide Plumbing Engineers and Designers, Building Officials, Plumbing Contractors, and Building Maintenance Engineers with an in-depth, technical comparison of the various non-metallic plumbing system options available on the market today. As a growing number of non-metallic alternatives continue to replace traditional metal plumbing systems, this webinar will provide participants with the knowledge to make informed decisions about which non-metallic system is the best choice for any given project requirements. Topics include:

Features and benefits of each of the non-metallic plumbing system materials
How various fitting systems and joining techniques can affect project reliability, time and cost
Model code considerations and standards requirements that can impact your design specification
Life-limiting factors of non-metallic pipe and fitting systems

This webinar was sponsored by Lubrizol. Original air date: May 2014

The Presenter: Mark Tanner, CPD

Mark has spent 30 years in the consulting engineering field during which time he achieved his “Certified in Plumbing Design” designation. Mark has spent a great majority of his career designing plumbing, piping, HVAC and fire protection systems, while also managing numerous construction projects – everything from military installations on various bases around the country to various marina systems and other high-tech projects for Intel and the Biosphere 2 project in Oracle, Arizona.

In 2008, Mark made a professional career move and joined the Advanced Materials Division of The Lubrizol Corporation, a chemical company located in Northeast Ohio which makes and compounds raw materials for various products, including the innovative resins and compounds used in the production of FlowGuard®, BlazeMaster® and Corzan® piping systems. Among his role as a piping systems consultant for Lubrizol, Mark provides education and training on the technical aspects of CPVC piping systems and how they may fit into various construction projects.
