DRAWINGS
Mechanical Drawings show general arrangement of all piping, equipment and appurtenances.
They shall be followed as closely as actual building construction and work of other trades will
permit. Mechanical work shall conform to requirements shown on all Drawings. General and
Structural Drawings shall take precedence over Mechanical Drawings. Because of the small scale
of Mechanical Drawings, A is not possible to indicate all offsets, fitings and accessories which may
be required. Contractor shall investigate structural and finish conditions affecting work and shall
arrange his work accordingly, providing such fitings, valves and accessories as may be requi red to
meal such conditions without additional cost
to the Owner.
Each Contractor and Subcontractor shall study all drawings applicable to this work so complete

trades. No extra compensation will be allowed to cover the cost of removing piping, conduit, duds,
or equipment found encroaching on space required by others.
MINOR DEVIATIONS
Forthe purpose of clarity and legibility, Drawings are essentially diagrammatic although size and
location of equipment and piping are drawn nearto scale wherever possible. Verify Contract
Document information at site.
Drawings indicate required sizes and points of termination of pipes and duds and suggested
routes. It is notthe intention of Drawings to indicate all necessary offsets. Install work in a manner
to conform to structure, avoid obstructions, preserve headroom and keep openings and
passageways clear. Do not scale from Drawings.

waterproof, fire retardant and suitable for temperatures of 200°F. Manufacturers: Duro-Dyne,
Venffabrics or equal.
Runs of flexible dud shall not exceed 5'-0". Flexible dud shall not be used as an elbow. Provide
sheet metal elbow at diffuser neck where tap is not out of the bottom of the supply main.
Furnish and install balancing dampers (BD) for each supply air runout and at additional locations,
as shown on the tlrawings. Construction to be galvanized steel, two gauges heavier than dud.
Shaft shall be sled with brass bearings. Blades shall not exceed 12" wide and 48" long. Frames of
same gauge metal are required where two blades or more are used.
Balancing dampers to have lock -type damper operator nd linkage as best suits construction and
