ASPE Design Standards Committee:
Are you interested in working with ASPE to develop design standards? Give back to your profession by providing assistance in setting standards that will impact the industry.
Hot Water Temperature Control Committee
Scope of committee: the development of consensus requirements for the control of hot water in a water distribution system. The standard should identify the temperature limitations, range of temperature, and acceptable means of controlling the temperature of the hot water. Flexibility of design will be included in the design requirements.
Water Pipe Sizing Committee
Scope of Committee: the development of consensus requirements for the sizing of various water distribution systems. The standard should identify the various methodologies for sizing a water distribution system identifying the limiting parameters based on the selected method. Specific design limitations should be quantified, including flow velocity, flow rates for various fixtures, and pressure limitations.
Venting Systems Committee
Scope of Committee: the development of consensus requirements for the various venting methods that can be used in a plumbing system. The standard will identify all of the venting methods that have proven to be successful in a plumbing drainage system plus the method for engineering the design of a venting system.
