Typ!.ca I Piping
Dellverables

The following list is intended to be an all-encompassing list. However,

the typical piping project will not normally require every document listed
here. It will be the piping engineering lead and the actual needs of the proj-
ect that determine which are actually required.
Note: The term specification is used here for certain documents. These
do not always need to be specifications. They could be prepared and issued
as technical notes or some other format. The important thing is to make
sure all parties understand and agree to the order of priority. The order of
priority may be as follows:

9 Shall do--Specifications are "shall do" documents. A piping fabrica-

tion isometric is a shall do document defining specific work to a shop
fabricator.
9 Should do--Technical notes may be considered a "should do" document.
Some codes are written to be should do documents. (If you have this con-
dition, then you should do thus; if you have that condition, then you
should... )
