The quality of
M&E Works is important in view of its increasingly high cost
proportion and its impact on the performance of a building. The
assessment covers Air-conditioning & Mechanical Ventilation Works
(ACMV), Electrical Works, Fire Protection Works, the Sanitary &
Plumbing Works and the basic M&E fittings.
The stages of the
assessment include:
(i) Site inspection of in-process works
during construction such as on ACMV ductworks, electrical conduits,
concealed pipes, etc.
(ii) Site inspection of final installed
works such as the Air-Handling Unit (AHU), the cooling tower, fire alarm
control panel, etc.
(iii) Performance tests on selected works
such as Water Pressure Test, Earthing Test, Dry Riser Test, etc.
