HVAC PLANS
Part 1: Problems 23.1 Through 23.3
PROBLEM 23.1 Residential HVAC plan
Given: Residential heating engineering sketch of a main floor
plan and basement. Do the following on appropriately sized
sheets with a border and an architectural-style title block, unless
otherwise specified by your instructor. Two B-size sheets or one
C-size sheet are recommended.
1. Make a formal double-line HVAC floor plan layout at a
1/405 19-00 scale.
2. Approximate the location of undimensioned items such as
windows.
3. Place drawing features on unique layers using the AIA layer
standard names where possible. Use thin lines for the floor
plan layout and use thick lines for the heating equipment
and duct runs unless otherwise specified by your instructor
or supervisor.

PROBLEM 23.3 Commercial HVAC plan
You are given the following:
1. An HVAC floor plan engineering layout is at approximately
1/1605 19-09. The engineer’s layout is rough, so round off
dimensions to the nearest convenient units at 60 intervals.
For example, if the dimension you scale reads 24 ft. 3 in.,
then round off to 24 ft. 0 in. The floor plan does not require
dimensioning, so the representation is more important than
the specific dimensions.
2. Related schedules.
3. Engineers sketch for exhaust hood.
Do the following on appropriately sized sheets with borders and
architectural-style title blocks, unless otherwise specified by
your instructor. A D-size sheet is recommended. All required
items can fit on one sheet with careful planning.
1. Make a formal double-line HVAC floor plan layout at a 1/405
19-00scale. (Note: You measured the given engineer’s sketch
at 1/1605 19-00.) Now convert the established dimensions to
a formal drawing at 1/405 19-00. Approximate the location of
the HVAC duct runs and equipment in proportion to the
presentation on the sketch. Assume that the given single-
line sketch represents the centerline of the ducts.

PROBLEM 23.2 Residential air-to-air heat exchanger plan
Given: Residential air-to-air heat exchanger ducting engineering
sketch of a basement floor plan. Do the following on appropri-
ately sized sheets with a border and an architectural-style title
block, unless otherwise specified by your instructor. One B- or
C-size sheet is recommended.
1. Make a formal single-line air-to-air heat exchanger floor
plan layout at a 1/405 19-00 scale.
2. Approximate the location of undimensioned items such as
doors.
3. Place drawing features on unique layers using the AIA layer
standard names where possible. Use thin lines for the floor
plan layout and use thick lines for the air-to-air heat ex-
changer equipment and duct runs.

Part 2: Problems 23.4 and 23.5
PROBLEM 23.4 Commercial HVAC plan
Problem courtesy Wendys International, Inc.
Given the following:
1. HVAC floor plan single-line engineering layout at approxi-
mately 1/80 5 19-00. The provided problem is rough, so
round off to the nearest convenient units at 60 intervals. For
example, if a dimension reads 249-30, round off to 249-00 or
249-60 as you prefer. The floor plan does not require dimen-
sioning; therefore, the representation is more important
than the actual dimensions.
2. Related general notes, schedules, schematics, and details.
NOTE: Do not include notes and dimensions for
wall thickness, door sizes, and tangent. Top view
of exhaust hood detail is drawn as a transition
piece, similar to Figure 23.68.
2. Prepare correlated schedules in the space available. Set
up the schedules in a manner similar to the examples in
Figure 23.23, page 870, for layout.
3. Make a detail drawing of the exhaust hood either scaled or
unscaled. Make the detail large enough to clearly show the
features. Refer to Figure 23.20, pages867–868, for an example
of a detail drawing.
4. Approximate the location of doors, windows, and fixtures.
5. Place drawing features on unique layers using the AIA layer
standard names where possible. Draw the floor plan layout
using thin lines and the HVAC components with thick lines
for contrast.
Do the following on an appropriately sized sheet or sheets:
1. Make a formal double-line HVAC floor plan at a scale of
1/40 5 19-00. (Note: You measured the given plan using a
1/80 5 19-00 scale. Use the established dimensions to create
the formal drawing at a scale of 1/4 5 19-00.) Approximate
the location of the HVAC duct runs and equipment in pro-
portion to the presentation given on the engineering layout.
Assume that the single-line layout is the centerline of the
ducts.
2. Approximate the location and size of doors, windows, and
fixtures.

Part 3: Problems 23.6 Through 23.14
PROBLEM 23.6 Exhaust duct system (in.)
Given: The engineer’s sketch and specifications for an exhaust
duct system. The sketch displays the top, front, and partial left
side views of an exhaust duct system that could be found in any
commercial solid-fuel exhaust. The exhaust pickup is rectangu-
lar in shape, and the discharge throat is cylindrical. The direc-
tional path of the system is often obstructed and closely confined
for reasons of design and operation of the system.
Do the following on an appropriately sized sheet or sheets
with border and architectural-style title blocks:
1. Make a pattern development for each of the five exhaust
duct components. There are five individual pattern develop-
ment drawings:
a. Truncated cylinder
b. Truncated cone
c. Three-piece elbow
d. Square-to-round transition piece
e. Rectangular transitional elbow
2. Use full scale unless otherwise specified by your instructor.
Use a 3/8 in. single-lap seam on individual parts and be-
tween adjacent parts.
3. Show all layout and construction. Do not turn off or freeze
your construction layer unless otherwise specified by your
instructor.
PROBLEM 23.7 Welding booth hood (in.)
Given: The engineer’s sketch of a fabrication shops welding
booth hood. Do the following on an appropriately sized sheet or
sheets with border and architectural-style title blocks:
1. Make a pattern development drawing of the pyramid-
shaped hood and the shroud base at full scale, unless other-
wise specified by your instructor.
2. Provide the cutout for the window to be added later. Be
careful to find the true location and true size and shape of
the cutout in the pattern.
3. No seam material allowance is required because the seams
are welded.
4. Show all layout and construction on a construction layer.
