How do you guys consider these things when designing? 1. Try to choose practical materials, and take into account ease of installation as well as future use and maintenance, in order to reduce project costs. 2. Try to follow the standard procedures when going live in order to protect yourself; from a design perspective this is a conservative approach, but no one can find any faults with it. 3. Try to use high-quality materials and increase project investment to raise design costs. I wonder what mindset friends use when they do design? If your own company were to invest in a project involving the installation of water pipelines underground, with DN200 diameter, a pressure of 0.5 MPG, operating at normal temperatures, and a total length of around 600 meters, for use in production and daily life, which of the following materials would you choose? 1. Steel-plastic pipe (260–300 yuan per meter), connected using clamps; 2. PE pipe; 3. PP pipe; 4. Others.
My company is a listed company, and there are many new projects currently in progress. I am fortunate to be a designer at this company. There are also a considerable number of factories in the medical and chemical industrial park located near our company, with all kinds of facilities there. As for the mindset we adopt when designing projects – whether it’s the design of workshop units or utility systems – it mainly depends on the mindset and attitude of the unit’s leadership or boss when carrying out those projects. But our company generally opts for the first approach, which avoids both waste and stinginess ； It is practical while also taking long-term comfort into account. It’s very simple: for the installation of water pipes, we use steel-plastic pipes (at 260–300 yuan per meter). The price might be high, but for projects that are meant to last for a long time and involve large-scale construction, we need to consider both the initial investment and the long-term returns. But for the same project, I know that small factories can use PP pipes for their water pipes. In a word, look at the boss’s positioning! !
