With Innovative Software Features, You Can Increase Profits, Productivity, and Control Over your Building Services Projects

 

Today, most managers and contractors use software so building services designers can speed up their service delivery, execute projects faster, aid in decision-making and provide budget management.  From the outset, these software solutions provide greater control and precision to building services providers as they can manage variables such as material, cost, and time more efficiently.

Project cost management is essential to turning a profit. Software for building services designers provide the project managers with a delivery framework to assess the feasibility of a project and provide an evaluation of the building’s future performance.

Assessing inconsistencies in the project beforehand

The total cost of providing building services is reduced as a result of fewer delays and information requests. The possibility of human error due to manual work is eliminated because computer programmes automate a large portion of the project, including advanced engineering calculations. The software enables project managers to assess the constructability of the project while also checking for inconsistencies. All the activities and processes associated with the project are improved because of the accuracies and 3D simulations provided by these software solutions for building services designers, including fire sprinkler calculation software.

Popular fire sprinkler calculation software

Two such popular fire sprinkler calculation software solutions used by building services providers in Australia, New Zealand and other regions of the world include HYENA+ and SPRINK2000. With a given sized network, HYENA+ computer program can perform a complete hydraulic analysis determining the water flow in and pressure drop through each pipe. It is capable of analysing looped, gridded systems and tree configurations. All nodes not nominated as discharges or input points are automatically assigned as reference nodes by HYENA+ to save input time.

Other key features of HYENA+ software for hydraulic analysis of fire sprinkler and hydrant systems include:

·         It can comply with a wide range of codes for piping materials to Australian, New Zealand, and API piping codes.

·         A wide range of fittings is provided for with equivalent lengths stored in the program.

·         Check valves can be made to restrict flow to one direction in a given pipe.

·         HYENA can determine the design point given the K-factor and minimum discharge of each sprinkler head or hose reel.

Large building fire codes and safety codes require the installation of fire sprinkler systems to protect lives and minimize damage to property in the event of a fire. The best building services design firms know that fire sprinklers are far more than just for show. In the unfortunate event of a sudden fire breakout, an automated fire sprinkler system can help extinguish the fire before firefighters reach the site.

SPRINK2000 fire sprinkler calculation software

SPRINK2000 can be used to carry out a sprinkler system analysis of hydrant systems with or without hoses or hose reels. When pipe sizes are entered as nominal sizes, the program determines the actual ID from the stored data. Any number and arrangement of sprinklers on the grid can be made operational and the program can find the least favourable position of the operating heads.

Other key features of SPRINK2000 computer program for carrying out hydraulic analysis of fire sprinkler and hydrant systems include:

·         Sprinkler elevations can be entered individually across a grid row or as a single slope or pithed slope across the grid row.

·         The grid commands can be converted into the longhead detailed individual pipe and sprinkler elevations.

·         Range checks are carried out on all input items as they are entered.

·         For design estimation, SPRINK2000 can also determine quantities in the system including pipe lengths and the number of fittings categorised by pipe material type and diameter.

ACADS-BSG has also designed many other useful building services software including CAMEL for building air conditioning load analysis and psychometrics, PYTHON for designing of water piping system for air conditioning, DOLPHIN for sizing and pressure drop calculations of duct runs, among others.

Streamline and improve work efficiencies

The software will help improve and streamline work efficiencies related to building services, boost productivity and profitability, and unite your workforce. The software from ACADS-BSG helps in creating cost-effective and efficient business processes.
