Whats in A Water Distribution Report
Whats in A Water Distribution Report
(OP)
I am a beginner and need help. What should be included if I want to create a COMPLETE AND COMPREHENSIVE report regarding an existing water distribution system and a proposed system.

Can you be more specific???

would be the most valuable information to someone who would look at the report with these thoughts?

incoming pressure and pressure drop through the system (constant supply? adding to current supply?)
flow rate needed at each exit point vs. incoming flow rate (important is "schedule" for exit points i.e. what happens if everyone flushes toilet at same time)
both above also determine pipe sizes - compare to existing for connection point
potential for galvanic reaction or same pipe materials used?
any chemical concerns/changes to water for drinking vs. process water (softening, filtering, etc.) - this is a large topic in itself, but I'm assuming a municipal supply, no special needs in building
current buillding layout vs. proposed pipe routing
costs and method of connection (flanged? threaded? soldered? - each have different costs associated with them)
additional or special valving required? - check valves, etc.
fire water supply to sprinkler system
environment for pipe - need insulation to avoid sweating in humid conditions?
potential maintenance concerns or accessibility
While I don't doubt there are others, this is all that came to me in the few minutes I had to answer. Hope this helps.
