MEP SYSTEMS DESIGN SEQUENCE MANUAL — $97 ONE-TIME
Twenty years of real-project MEP practice, structured as a sequential design reference. Not theory. Not a code summary. The actual decision logic — in the order you need it at work.
WHAT'S INSIDE
01 - Sequential design workflow across all three mechanical disciplines (excluding electrical)
26 chapters covering HVAC, plumbing, and fire fighting — each structured as on-the-job engineering notes with sizing methodology, system selection logic, and field coordination checkpoints in the exact order a working engineer needs them.
02 - Standards reference mapped directly to each chapter
Supplement A cross-references ASHRAE, NFPA, IPC, and ISO clauses for every topic in the manual. No more context-switching between a handbook and a code book. The relevant standard is already located for you.
03 - 15 original A3 technical illustration diagrams
Supplement B provides system schematics drawn from real design practice — not textbook illustrations. Use them to check your own layouts, brief a client, or orient a new team member before they touch a drawing.
WHY THIS IS DIFFERENT
Most MEP references are either code documents (prescriptive, no workflow context) or academic textbooks (theoretical, disconnected from project execution). Neither tells you what to check before you size a chilled water pump, or how to sequence a pressurisation calculation against the ventilation system you already designed. This manual documents the practical engineering logic that experienced designers apply implicitly — the sequencing, the coordination decisions, the sizing sanity checks — made explicit and transferable. If you are transitioning from site to design, or carrying more responsibility than your experience has formally prepared you for, this is the reference that fills that gap.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Is this a textbook or a software tool?
Neither. It is a PDF manual structured like engineering field notes — workflow-oriented, sequentially organised, written by a practitioner for practitioners. You read it the way you would a well-organised colleague's project file, not a reference handbook.
I am mostly site-based. Is this relevant to me?
Yes. The manual was specifically written with site engineers moving into design in mind. The language is practical, not academic, and the field coordination notes throughout the manual reflect real construction-phase constraints, not just design-office assumptions.
Does it cover the codes, or do I need to buy the standards separately?
The complete bundle includes Supplement A, which cross-references the relevant ASHRAE, NFPA, IPC, and ISO clauses for each chapter. You do not need to purchase the full standards to follow the design workflow — the references are located and contextualised within the manual. Though you need to have access to the relevant international codes and standards in order to see the charts and tables.
