It is emphasized that any structure to be constructed <br /> I must satisfy the need for efficiency for which it is intended and shall be durable for its desired life <br /> span. Thus. the MEP design of any structure is categorized into following two main types: <br /> I I. Functional design <br /> 2. MEP design <br /> I FUNCTIONAL DESIGN: The most important function of the MEP design is to support the use of the <br /> structure for its intended use. Depending on the structures use. the MEP design will vary <br /> significantly. This is why it is extremely important during the Strategy phase to define in detail the <br /> Ifunctions and use of each component of the proposed facility. <br /> MEP DESIGN: Once the functions have been properly defined. then it is up to the professional to <br /> Iproperly engineer the facility to support the use. <br /> The process of the Mechanical/Plumbing Engineering involves the following stages: <br /> II.
