Overview
Wetside Design from HVAC Design

Solutions is a package of software programs
for many of the HVAC Designers sizing
tasks:
Hydronic System Sizing -Optimum Sizes
Pump Head Calcs (Primary, Secondary, &
Condenser Water Pumps)
Heating Water Expansion Tank Sizing
Chilled Water Expansion Tank Sizing
Coil Psychrometrics & Coil GPM Calcs
Extensive Help Files, and Extras
Streamline Your Design
Reduce your dependence on

Reference Books, Charts, Graphs,
and Rules of Thumb.
Eliminate many of the usual HVAC
Design Tasks
Reduce common errors and mistakes
Create an easy-to-follow, step-bystep Procedure for Wetside Design
Software Package contains most of
for all projects.

Preliminary Review of Plans and Specifications

1 Quickly review all Drawings in the Construction Document set, including Architectural,
Structural, Civil, Landscaping, Mechanical, Plumbing, Fire Protection, Electrical, Food
Service, and any other discipline. Spend not more than one minute per sheet, average.
2 Make a list of any apparent discrepancies or questions while reviewing the set, and add
flags to sheets where there are significant questions.
3 Quickly review the Specifications by reading through the Table of Contents for
Mechanical and Plumbing work. Check the Table of Contents against the actual
Specification sections to verify all sections have been included. Make a list of questions
that may come up during the cursory review.
4 Review Architectural T itle Sheet, or first sheet in the set, and make a list of the Project
Square Footage, Building Occupancy Type, Building Construction Type, Governing
Codes, Index of Drawings, and any other information that relates to Mechanical or
Plumbing work.
5 Check for consistent appearance of Title Blocks, Drawing Scales, North Arrows,
Professional Stamps, Company Logos, Sheet Numbers, Sheet Titles, Issue Dates, and
Issue Revisions on all sheets.
Demolition Plans
1 Verify that Demolition Symbols (cross-hatching, etc.) are clear and complete, and are
coordinated with other disciplines.
2 Verify there are notes regarding potential hazardous materials (asbestos, lead paint,
etc.), and coordinate with Architect or other Prime Consultant and Owner.
