Lectures

Goal

Objective of the course is to introduce students to different stages of construction, from technical documentation preparation and obtaining the necessary approvals to construction and exploitation. Students learn about with the contents of the project. In the second part of the course acquire basic knowledge related to activities that follow design of processing industry facilities (power supply, operating fluids, transport, water flow etc.). Part of the course deals with the economic evaluation of investments.

Outcome

Main outcome of the course is to teach students to independently run object construction. This includes project documentation preparation and object construction. After successful completion of the study program, student is capable to foresee the extent of necessary design work in processing industry, as well as to plan necessary installation for production plants.

Theoretical teaching

Legal framework for building facilities. Planning and Construction Law. Aim of design. Building capital investment facilities. Types of mechanical engineering projects. Content of a mechanical engineering project. Workplace safety. Fire protection. Environment protection. Assessment of impact on environment. Design of technology supported production line. Drawing schemes of technology systems and production systems. Marking of apparatus, valves, fittings and equipment for measuring and regulation on technological schemes. Technology warehouses and transport systems. Plants for energy supply. Basic forms of energy: heat (thermal), electrical and mechanical (potential and kinetic energy). Power systems. Operating fluids (water, air, technical gases).Distribution of water vapor. Compressed air and technical gases. Heating, air-conditioning and ventilation. Maintenance of production and technology systems. Assessment of services in building capital investment facilities. Investment costs. Feasibility study. Exploitation costs.

Practical teaching

Introduction to the investment technical documentation. Introduction to the format of mechanical engineering projects. Examples of calculation of technology supported production lines. Examples of drawing technology systems schemes. Designing warehouses and transport systems. Power supply systems. Compressed air supply. Design of facilities for energy supply. Distribution of operative fluids. Budget and validation of investment. Exploitation and investment costs of facility operation. Independent realization of the main machine engineering project according to the predefined project task.
