9Why MEP Engineering is becoming more significant?
10Increasing Population and decreasing land
availability
- Increasing Population, Decreasing land
availability and Increasing Environmental
regulations resulted in the requirement of high
rise buildings where the services are complicated
and requires Engineering skills
11Migrating population towards extreme climates
- Historically the population density was higher in
tropical and moderate climates, globalization and
technology have caused migration of population to
extreme climatic conditions like Canada, Middle
East etc where buildings have to provided with
thermal comfort against the extreme climate
12 More People Centric
- Consider a building which is providing software
services. Services are provided by people and
more money is spent on people more than
buildings. Hence it is important to keep people
comfortable so that they offer better service.
Viewed over a 30 year period, initial building
costs account for approximately just 2 of the
total, while operations and maintenance costs
equal 6, and personnel costs equal 92.Graphic
