A. Introduction 1st day Before we start our lesson, here are some terminologies that you will encounter in this
lesson.
Panimula
DEFINITION OF TERMS

Fittings are any pipe part used to join two sections of pipe, such as
elbows, couplings, bushings, bends, wyes, etc.

PVC stands for Polyvinyl chloride. A rigid white or cream-colored

plastic pipe used in non-pressure systems, such as drainage,
waste, and vent systems.

Joint Intersection or connection of pipes in fittings or fixtures.

Solvent Cement is an adhesive material used for joining PVC pipes and other
plastic pipes. It is a quick setting volatile contact cement to
monolithically join plastic pipes.

5S refers to a systematized approach to organize work areas, keep

rules and standards, and maintain discipline needed to do a
good job.

Specifications is an integral part of a Building Plan. It is a requirement in

securing a building permit. It is also a precise, explicit
statement or enumeration of particulars as to size, etc. of
making things right and is presented in a short, simple, concise,
and direct language easily understood.

is an exchangeable device which can be connected to an

existing plumbing system to deliver and drain away water but
which is also configured to enable a particular use.

INFORMATION SHEET # 1.1

BLUEPRINTS

A blueprint is a thick paper having white line drawings shown against a deep-blue
background. Blueprints are the working drawings which architects prepare as a guide in the
construction of houses and some other related works in the construction such as electrical
and plumbing. There are seldom, if ever, any detail of the required plumbing system given
other than those which show the fixture symbols in their proper places and the location of
partitions through which pipes are to be run.
 The blueprints should be studied so that a perfect visualization of the entire
system and its complete details can be obtained. All of which must be considered as the
design of the plumbing system. In case some of the items in the blueprint are not properly
indicated, written specifications are provided to help the one reading the blueprints
understand the given plan more clearly. Written specifications as well as the blueprint
should be studied carefully, and every item indicated should be given extreme attention.
Some specifications are also shown on the blueprint in the form of plumbing notes. Those
notes are as important as any of the symbols, plans or items in the written specification. See
the sample pictures of a typical blueprint of a plumbing system in a residential house.
