SYNOPSIS
This course would cover some sections of the Professional Competence Exam (PCE) Part B Hydraulics (20%) of the Mechanical
Paper, UTG, MS1402 and BS6700.

At the end of the training course, participants would be able to:

1) Understand the basis to determine the cold water storage demand and size the transfer pump accordingly. This is in
accordance to the latest SPAN Uniform Technical Guidelines.
2) Select the suitable type of pumping system to meet the water usage requirements namely direct, variable speed drive,
and pneumatic tank.
3) Select the piping material amongst the many choices of plastic and metal.
4) Calculate the piping size for cold water in accordance to the BS6700 standard methodology of Loading Units.
5) Take preventive measures to minimize the impact of water hammer to the pipe lines by way of design and selection of
the right equipment.
6) Determine the stack size of Soil, Waste, Vent (SWV) using Discharge Unit methodology and understand the constraints
impose on branch discharge pipe in particular on the gradient to minimize blockage.
7) Understand the factors which contribute to smelly toilets and the solutions
8) Observe poorly installed plumbing and SWV systems which are preventable

Participants are required to bring along a scientific calculator to work on the case studies.

IR. GARY LIM ENG HWA BE(Mech.) NZ, Mgt Dip. FIEM, P.Eng, Asean Eng., he is AT31000 (Approved ISO31000 Risk Mgt
Lead Trainer) Ir. Gary Lim is an experienced and qualified Professional Engineer with over 20 years of manufacturing experience
in these areas; Industrial Engineering (Work Study), Project Management, Maintenance, Production and Factory Management.
The 20 years of his work spanned over various industries namely industrial chemicals, dairy products, jam, sauces, chocolates,
confectionaries, industrial gases (liquid nitrogen, oxygen, argon, etc), blow moulding of plastic containers and paint manufacturing
(highly fire hazardous).

His last 11 years of his working experience was with a multinational insurance company where he received further training in the
area of Fire Engineering from an insurer perspective, started as the Risk Engineer and retired as the Risk Manager of the MNC
insurer. He attended a course from HSB Industrial Risk Insurers at Hartford, United States of America on the Implementing The
Concepts of Industrial Fire Control in August 1998. He also attended The Insurance School (Non-Life) of Japan Advance Course
on Risk Management in year 2008 and was presented a Diploma.

Gary had conducted numerous risk management surveys of various industries from wafer plant to power plants. Currently he is
a member of the Building Services Technical Division and member of the Fire Advisory Board of the Institution of Engineers,
Malaysia. He has a degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Canterbury, New Zealand and a Management
Diploma from New Zealand. He is a Professional Engineer registered with the Board of Engineers, Malaysia and a Fellow of the
Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM). He spoke in many public seminars both for the insurance industry, Malaysia Fire
Protection Association and the Institution of Engineers, Malaysia.

Currently, he conducts courses regularly on the concepts and design in the area of Fire Engineering and Plumbing Engineering
at all the IEM branches in Malaysia. He also conducts courses with Malaysia Institute of Insurance on these topics: The Art of
Property Underwriting Profitability and Essence of Survey Report; Applying Fire Engineering Knowledge in Property Survey and
Loss Control; Enterprise Risk Management & Business Continuity Management.
