Our company has a new project that is about to start with equipment installation. The design drawings have been prepared, and work is expected to begin in one or two months. I’m a beginner, but I have a supervisor guiding me. I really want to learn as much as possible during the installation phase in the workshop. I was wondering if there are any methods or good plans I could use; which areas should I focus on for the best and most favorable future development? Thank you in advance to all of you:(
Our company is also working on new projects, and I think you need to master equipment, civil engineering, design principles, and so on; there’s plenty of time for that
There should be focus points; don’t try to learn everything, or you won’t learn anything at all. Do you want to focus on device installation? Is it still civil construction, process pipeline installation, or something else? If it involves equipment installation, then equipment is divided into static and dynamic types; considerations include drawing review, foundation inspection, and acceptance upon the arrival of the equipment. For static equipment, there is a need to review the lifting plan, while for dynamic equipment, an installation plan is required. You should focus on learning these aspects if you have access to them. As for installation standards, acceptance specifications, and specific parameters, there’s no need to memorize them all – there’s plenty of information available in books; it’s sufficient to note down the key inspection points. With all that said, it’s still necessary to read some books on engineering installation; learning while practicing will yield better results
Thank you both. I have just started working in equipment engineering; I have been in charge of equipment management in the company’s engineering department for less than 4 months. So I don’t know where to start learning – what should I learn first, what books are available, and what are the key points? Thank you, sea friends.
I want to learn installation and process pipeline configuration, but I still need to understand some basics of civil engineering.
Reply to 5# 635656648: As a beginner, one needs to go to the site as often as possible, observe more, think more. If something is not clear, go back and look up information, keep searching and keeping thinking. Don’t rush to ask questions when you don’t understand something; since it’s the installation of a new system, there is enough time and opportunity for you to learn. Seize these opportunities, and your skills will improve rapidly
They will all be technical experts in the future. . . . . . . . . . Go to the site more often to observe and learn*, to get in touch with reality.
I’m not sure if it can be used with a pump
Look at the drawings first, then the relevant specifications, and compare the two with the actual construction process, and you’ll understand what’s going on.
It’s not installed yet; let’s take a look at the equipment drawings first. I think you should focus on the equipment and the process pipelines. In the future, your work will likely involve either equipment or process control, but to handle process control, you need to start with an understanding of the equipment first
Based on a thorough understanding of the drawings and specifications, spend more time on site, observe more, listen more, and take notes. Don’t forget to carry a small notebook, a pen, and a ruler with you.
