Summary This section contains design criteria for rectangular and round metal ductwork, duct liners, and hangers for supply, return, and exhaust systems. B. System Design and Performance Requirements 1. Keep the ductwork layout simple. Use short, direct runs where ever possible, and conserve ceiling space. 2. All return/exhaust air must be ducted. The use of ceiling plenums for return/exhaust air is prohibited. 3. Perchloric acid fume exhaust ductwork must be individually ducted without connection to other exhausts. 4. Fume hoods and contaminated or hazardous areas must be exhausted by a system of ducts entirely separate from all other exhaust systems. The location of area exhausts should be carefully coordinated with reference to remoteness from supply air outlets, doors, and windows. Animal areas and toilet rooms shall have separate exhausts. See Section 00705: General HVAC Design Conditions. 5. Wherever possible, exhaust ducts carrying noxious or corrosive fumes must be under negative pressure; connect them on the suction side of the fan. 6. Review appropriate SMANCA sections (laboratory) when designing duct distribution systems.

Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2016 Dedication This document is dedicated to my family. Dad, you have always been so encouraging, helpful, and levelheaded. If not for all of your help and encouragement, I’m not sure I’d be where I’m at today. To my brother, I’m so happy for the years we spent growing up together. They are some of my fondest memories and I’ll never forget them. Mom, if you were still here today, you’d be so proud. I think of you all constantly, and I love you all. Acknowledgements I would like to first and foremost thank Dr. Bogard, who has supported and taught me so much along the way. Your dedication to your field of research is an inspiration to me, and you’ve helped shape me in to the engineer I am today. You also taught me how great it is to be “mighty fine” all the time, and that’s priceless in and of itself.

FOREWORD This technical guide was prepared in response to increasing concerns over the requirements for through-penetration firestopping as mandated by codes, specified by system designers, and required by code officials and/or other authorities having jurisdiction. The language in the model codes, the definitions used, and the expectations of local code authorities varies widely among the model codes and has caused confusion in the building construction industry. Contractors are often forced to bear the brunt of inadequate or confusing specifications, misunderstandings of code requirements, and lack of adequate plan review prior to construction. This guide contains descriptions, illustrations, definitions, recommendations on industry practices, designations of responsibility, references to other documents and guidance on plan and specification requirements. It is intended to be a generic educational tool for use by all parties to the construction process. Firestopping Guideline • Second Edition iii FIRE AND SMOKE CONTROL COMMITTEE Phillip E.

  • 23.31.00 Ductwork
    UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA Design Standards Revision July 2019 SECTION 233100 – DUCTWORK 1.0 Acoustical duct lining in any part of the duct system is prohibited. All ductwork requiring insulation shall be externally insulated (Refer to the Sheet Metal Ductwork Insulation Schedule in Section 230700 for insulation types and thickness). Double walled ducts consisting of an outer wall of galvanized sheet metal, an inner wall of perforated galvanized sheet metal with insulation sandwiched between the layers is permitted. 2.0 All ductwork shall be designed, constructed, supported and sealed in accordance with SMACNA HVAC Duct Construction Standards and pressure classifications. When the ductwork pressure classification of these standards is exceeded, construct ductwork in accordance with SMACNA Round and Rectangular Industrial Duct Construction Standards. The following preferences or modifications to the Standards shall be specified: A. Radius elbows with a construction radius of 1.5 the duct width are preferred to square elbows. B. All square elbows must be constructed with single thickness turning vanes, Runner Type 2 as shown in Figures 4-3 and 4-4 of SMACNA Duct Construction Standards - Metal and Flexible. Where a rectangular duct changes in size at a square-throat elbow fitting, use single thickness turning vanes with trailing edge extensions aligned with the sides of the duct. C. Air extractors and splitter dampers are not permitted. D. Transitions and offsets shall follow Figure 4-7 of SMACNA HVAC Duct Construction Standards - Metal and Flexible, except that sides of transitions shall slope a maximum of 15 degrees. E. Minimum duct gauge shall be 22 for ducts up through 43", 20 gauge up through 60" and 18 gauge above 60".

A commercial kitchen grease duct serving a Type I hood that penetrates a ceiling, wall, floor or any concealed spaces shall be enclosed from the point of penetration to the outlet terminal. In-line exhaust fans not located outdoors shall be enclosed as required for grease ducts. A duct shall penetrate exterior walls only at locations where unprotected openings are permitted by the International Building Code. The duct enclosure shall serve a single grease duct and shall not contain other ducts, piping or wiring systems. Duct enclosures shall be either a shaft enclosure in accordance with Section 506.3.11.1, a field-ap- plied enclosure assembly in accordance with 506.3.11.2 or a factory-built enclosure assembly in accordance with Section 506.3.11.3. Duct enclosures shall have a fire-resistance rating of not less than that of the assembly pen- etrated and not less than 1 hour. Fire dampers and smoke dampers shall not be installed in grease ducts. Duct enclosures shall be as prescribed by Section 506.3.11.1, 506.3.11.2 or 506.3.11.3. 506.3.11.4 Duct enclosure not required.

  • Myths and Mythtery of Air Flow Do Not Be Swayed by Misconceptions About Air Flow in the Industry
    Myths And Mythtery of Air Flow Do not be swayed by misconceptions about air flow in the industry. By R.B.

AToo often customers buy “high efficiency” systems that do not deliver the energy-saving performance because of a defi- cient duct system.

  • Basis of Design
    UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON Mechanical Facilities Services Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning Design Guide Ductwork and Duct Accessories Basis of Design This section applies to the design and installation of ductwork, air terminal boxes, air outlets and inlets, volume dampers, pressure relief dampers, smoke/fire dampers, and smoke/fire damper actuators. Design Criteria Select duct velocities to meet N.C. requirements of each occupied space. NC level requirements shall be identified in the Basis of Design narrative. Coordinate required NC levels with University Project Manager and users. Supply, Return and Non Fume Exhaust Ductwork Provide a 6-inch pressure rating for supply ductwork and plenums between the supply fan and the zone terminal boxes; for ductwork downstream of the terminal box, provide a 2-inch pressure rating. If pressure classes less than those given above are considered sufficient for a specific application, review with Engineering Services before specifying a lower rating. Use the ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals chapter on duct design to determine the allowable leakage rate (cfm/100 sq.ft.) at the specified test pressure for each type of ductwork on the project other than fume exhaust ductwork. Specify for each type of ductwork the duct pressure rating, the pressure to apply during the duct leakage test, and the allowable cfm/100 sq.ft. leakage rate at the test pressure. Minimize use of square elbows. Provide turning vanes in square elbows of supply ductwork. Do not use turning vanes in return or exhaust ductwork. To minimize noise levels in the space, specify balancing dampers in lieu of registers. Provide a balancing damper for each outlet and each inlet.
