 MEP Systems in a High-Rise Building ✅️ basically all the main technical systems inside a tall building.

MEP = Mechanical + Electrical + Plumbing (plus Fire & Safety).
🔵 1. Mechanical System (HVAC / Cooling)
👉 Used for air conditioning & ventilation
Cooling Towers (roof) → remove heat from building
Chillers → make chilled water
FCU / AHU / Air Handling Units → supply cool air
Fan Coil Units → room cooling
Ducting & air distribution
👉 Purpose: Cooling, ventilation, indoor comfort
🟡 2. Electrical System
👉 Power supply & distribution
Transformers → voltage change
UPS Room → backup for critical loads
Switchboards / Panels
Cable risers
Lighting & sockets
Generator → power backup
👉 Purpose: Provide electricity safely
🔴 3. Fire Fighting System
👉 Safety during fire
Sprinklers
Fire pumps
Fire water tanks
Hose reels & hydrants
Fire alarm system
👉 Purpose: Detect + control fire
🔵 4. Plumbing System
👉 Water supply & drainage
Overhead water tank
Booster pumps
Vertical risers (water pipes)
Drainage lines
Sewage system
👉 Purpose: Drinking water + waste removal
🟠 5. Fuel System
Diesel storage
Fuel pumps
Supply to generator
👉 Purpose: Generator running during power failure
⚫ 6. Basement Services
Electrical room
Pump room
Fire water tank
Main plant equipment
👉 Purpose: Main service area of building
🧠 Simple Meaning
High-rise building works only when all systems connected together:
HVAC → comfort
Electrical → power
Plumbing → water
Fire → safety
Together = Integrated MEP System

Cathodic Corrosion Protection Systems: A Guide for Oil and Gas Industries

Cathodic Corrosion Protection Systems Cathodic Corrosion Protection Systems: A Guide for Oil and Gas Industries Preface Contents Preface The oil and gas industry depends on steel and other metals for pipelines, storage tanks, and infrastructure. However, these metals can corrode when exposed to water or soil, which is detrimental to the integrity of pipelines and storage tanks. This engineering book outlines the minimum requirements for anodes (high-silicon iron, graphite, magnetite) used in impressed current CP systems. It details the composition, materials, manufacturing, properties, inspection, and testing of these anodes. Additionally, it provides revised survey requirements to ensure corrosion control systems on buried or submerged structures are well-designed, operated, and maintained. The book also covers techniques, equipment, ...
