General Questions And Answers In Engineering and Technology

Engineering Technology - Engineers

What Is Engineering? Engineering is an art of applying science to the optimum conversion of the resources of nature to the uses of humankind. It is based principally on physics, chemistry, and mathematics and their extensions into materials science, solid and fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, transfer and rate processes, and systems analysis. It is thus we must define Engineering: "the practical application of science and math to commerce or industry". In other words "the art or science of applying scientific knowledge to practical problems".

Value Engineering and Its Importance In Engineering Industry

Value Engineering VE

The value is a function of cost. Therefore, it can be increased either by improving the function or reducing cost. The maximum value is achieved when the function performs reliably at the lowest cost. A key principle of value engineering that basic functions be preserved and not reduced as a result of improvements in value. Thus Value Engineering (VE) is a systematic method to improve the "value" of goods, products or services through an examination of the function.

Construction Control Guidelines for Materials Delivery and Excess Material in Site Logistics

Construction Control Guidelines for Materials Delivery and Excess Material in Site Logistics

Material deliveries shall be planned to meet schedule and construction requirements. The Plot Developer shall conform to the procedures related to entry permits and authorization, as prescribed by the Master Developer or the Master Developer's Project Manager. Excess material resulting from clearing, stripping and excavation operations shall not be removed from the site without the consent of the Master Developer's Project Manager.

Construction Control Guidelines

Construction Project

Construction Control Guidelines of project will help participants to establish right relationship with each other. It explains guidelines and minimum requirements that must be adhered to by developers for the duration of their construction activities. It can be listed as follows:

Construction Control Guidelines for Existing Services

Construction Control Guidelines for Existing Services

The extent, position, size and type of utilities shown on the Drawings issued to the Plot Developer have been based on information extracted from the records of the various public utilities, service providers, Ministries and the Project survey and must be regarded as approximate only.

Vacuum Air Circuit Breakers in MV Distribution System for Electrical Construction

Vacuum Interrupter of a Vacuum Air Circuit Breakers

The air vacuum circuit breakers are of the triple pole indoor type for rated voltage 24 KV. They operate on the vacuum arc quenching principle and outstandingly cost effective. The vacuum breaker consists of the mechanism 2 housing complete with stored energy mechanism and control elements. The three poles with vacuum interrupters, cast resin insulators and bracing struts, and the operating rods connecting the mechanism with the breaker poles.
