Hydraulic Installations in Buildings

hydraulic knowledge obtained at the undergraduate level.

In the theoretical-practical classes we use the expository and inquisitive method during the explanation of
theoretical issues and proceed to the resolution of individual and group exercises.
Students have to make two practical works involving the design and dimensioning of a hot water network with a
return circuit, and a fire sprinkler system.
In Tutorial classes students support is given to students by clarifying theoretical questions, solving exercises
and giving some guidance in practical works.
Experts are invited to deliver seminars on different subjects and, whenever possible a field visit to a relevant
facility will be conducted.
A final exam (EF) is performed, which consists of a theoretical part (7 points) and a practical part (13 points);
The approval requires that the mark EF is greater than or equal to 10 points;
The practical work (TP) is worth a total of four points; The final mark will be NF = 0.8EF+ TP.

Provide knowledge about the constitution, the design, sizing, implementation, operation and
rehabilitation of water distribution and domestic wastewater and rainwater drainage, in ordinary and special
buildings, including complementary facilities.
