operation. To preclude this in the future include the following
on drawings:
a) Identification of floor area required to remove
equipment components such as filters, coils, heat exchanger
tubes, bearings, etc. In equipment rooms, require that floor
space be identified by striping with yellow paint.
b) Equipment elevations and room sections to clearly
identify equipment arrangement which provides sufficient access
for equipment operation and maintenance.
c) Location of permanent ladders, catwalks, and
platforms required to access and maintain overhead equipment.
Minimize the use of elevated equipment wherever possible.
d) Use two dimensional pipe drawings (with dimensions
indicated as necessary) for congested spaces to ensure that
equipment and piping will be installed as intended with adequate
personnel space available for operation and maintenance.
