Paving
Within the process area minimal concrete paving should be supplied for walkways interconnecting major items of equipment, platforms, stairways and buildings. Paving should be supplied around pumps or other machinery located in the open, underneath furnaces, and any other areas where spillage is likely to occur during normal operation. Areas containing alkalis acids, or other chemicals or toxic materials should be paved and bunded to prevent spillage spreading. Other areas of the plant are to be graded and surfaced with granite chips or similar material.

11. Elevations
(See Table A) All elevations refer to a nominal 100 meters. The point 100 elevation is taken as the high point of paving in the paved areas. This should be common throughout the plant. Equipment elevations referring to grade elevations of 100 meters are as shown in table A.

12. Insulation
Insulation may be applied to vessel supports or stanchions of structures for fire protection purposes, thus decreasing available free space for access, siting of pipework, instruments or electrical equipment. In particular, note thickness of insulation of very high temperature or low temperature piping, which may considerably increase effective o/d of pipe to be routed. For low temperature insulation, additional clearance must be provided around control valves, instrumentation, etc. Consider additional weight of insulation and reduced centers of supports necessary to support heavily insulated pipe.
