  2. Multilevel groundwater monitoring systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilevel_groundwater...

    The Westbay MP system is a modular instrumentation system for multilevel groundwater monitoring acquired by Nova Metrix in 2015, the MP system consists of two parts: (1) the casing system and (2) portable probes and tools that provide a compatible data acquisition system. The Westbay casing system is designed to allow the monitoring of multiple ...

  3. WELL Building Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WELL_Building_Standard

    Overall building and workplace satisfaction was found to be high in WELL-certified buildings (94% and 87%). [10] Statistical analysis revealed that there is a 39% higher probability of finding an occupant that is satisfied with the building overall in a WELL-certified building than a LEED-certified building. [10]

  4. Pumping station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumping_station

    In the case of high sewage flows into the well (for example during peak flow periods and wet weather) additional pumps will be used. If this is insufficient, or in the case of failure of the pumping station, a backup in the sewer system can occur, leading to a sanitary sewer overflow —the discharge of raw sewage into the environment.

  5. Tankhouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankhouse

    A tankhouse (also spelled tank house or tank-house) is a water tower enclosed by siding. Tankhouses were part of a self-contained domestic water system supplying the house and garden, developed before the advent of electricity and municipal water mains. The system consisted of a windmill, a hand-dug well and the tankhouse.

  6. Interface control document - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_control_document

    An ICD is the umbrella document over the system interfaces; examples of what these interface specifications should describe include: The inputs and outputs of a single system, documented in individual SIRS (Software Interface Requirements Specifications) and HIRS (Hardware Interface Requirements Specifications) documents, would fall under "The Wikipedia Interface Control Document".

  7. Building performance simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_performance...

    From a physical point of view, a building is a very complex system, influenced by a wide range of parameters. A simulation model is an abstraction of the real building which allows to consider the influences on high level of detail and to analyze key performance indicators without cost-intensive measurements. BPS is a technology of considerable ...

  8. Performance-based building design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance-based_building...

    This is in contrast to traditional prescribed building codes, which mandate specific construction practises, such as stud size and distance between studs in wooden frame construction. [1] Such an approach provides the freedom to develop tools and methods to evaluate the entire life cycle of the building process, from the business dealings, to ...

  9. Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical,_electrical...

    However, this novel and complicated method requires careful and expensive planning from mechanical engineers, who must work closely with the engineers designing the electrical and plumbing systems for a building. A major concern for people designing HVAC systems is the efficiency, i.e., the consumption of electricity and water.
