Mechanical room (see: mechanical floor). Mechanical rooms typically house the following equipment: Equipment in mechanical rooms is often operated and maintained by a stationary engineer or a maintenance technician. Modern buildings use control systems to manage HVAC cycles, lighting, communications, and life safety equipment. Often, the control system hardware is located in the mechanical room and monitored or accessed remotely. Rooms with only electrical or electronic equipment are not considered mechanical rooms but are instead called electrical rooms. Mechanical room A mechanical room or a boiler room is a room or space in a building dedicated to the mechanical equipment and its
Mechanical–electrical analogies to synthesise a network to meet a prescribed frequency function. This approach is especially useful in the design of mechanical filters—these use mechanical devices to implement an electrical function. However, the technique can be used to solve purely mechanical problems, and can also be extended into other, unrelated, energy domains. Nowadays, analysis by analogy is a standard design tool wherever more than one energy domain is involved. It has the major advantage that the entire system can be represented in a unified, coherent way. Electrical analogies are particularly used by transducer designers, by their nature they cross energy domains, and
