BACACI / Scope of work

Ventilation and ductwork

Duct dimensions, unnecessary resistance and accessible connections are considered together to create a predictable air distribution path.

AIR / SYSTEMS / 02

Questions we consider before work

Duct sizing and routes
Elbows, transitions and branches
Supports, insulation and joints
Inspection and service access

THE PHYSICS OF AIR

Air volume Q (m³/h) and pressure loss Δp (Pa) describe related aspects of a system. Selecting ducts or fans without evaluating both can compromise the intended performance.

Elbows, transitions, internal surfaces, joint tightness and equipment location all affect the final result. The shortest route is not necessarily best when noise and service access are considered.

Final review may include visual inspection, accessible connections and the testing specified for the project. Compliance with a standard should only be claimed after appropriate verification.

Engineering note

Final materials, dimensions, airflow and methodology depend on site conditions and applicable requirements.
