Mechanical Estimating Services
Central boiler and chiller plants, welded carbon and stainless piping, hydronic loops, pumps and mechanical insulation, built with MCAA labour factors and registered to CSA B51 where pressure piping applies.
Technical Takeoff Scope & Engineering Overview
Mechanical piping and central plants need exact weld-inch counts, valve and trim assemblies, seismic and spring hangers, and insulation thickness to NECB/ASHRAE 90.1. We quantify every fitting, flange, bolt-up kit, hydro-test allowance and rigging pick, and flag CSA B51 pressure-piping registration (TSSA, ABSA, Technical Safety BC) where it affects cost.
Governing Canadian Codes & Specifications
- CSA B51 boiler, pressure vessel and pressure piping code
- National Energy Code of Canada for Buildings (NECB)
- CSA B52 mechanical refrigeration code
- ASHRAE 90.1
