This CD-ROM course, BPR 140: Mechanical Systems, is designed to familiarize the student with the plumbing, electrical, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and insulation systems in historic buildings. The department recognizes that each of these trades is a career in itself and that this course can’t possibly teach you everything about these trades. What this course does attempt to do is to:
- Provide a working vocabulary in each of the areas.
- Discuss issues in each of the areas that specifically deal with historic preservation.
- Establish a beginners level understanding of how each of these areas work in a building and provide some useful information on how to diagnose and remedy simple problems.
- Present an historical perspective on the development of each of these trades.
