Unit Description and General Aims
The unit will address the stage gate processes used on Greenfield and Brownfield projects which providing differing contexts for the E&I design development process.
The unit will address design considerations and the logical development of E&I deliverables per project phase, and in support of the main objective of that phase. The unit will also consider incorporation of vendor data into final deliverables.
The unit will address design standards, 2D deliverables, modelling E&I designs in the 3D plant model, tagging philosophy, Fieldbus and Smart MCC, control and safety systems field interfaces, safety-in-design, human factors-in-design, constructability, document review and approval cycle, developing construction scopes of work, construction support including managing site queries.
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this Unit, students are expected to be able to:
- Analyse and understand the Greenfield and Brownfield project development cycle and the impact on E&I design
- Assess the concept and application of Basis of Design and related design standards
- Evaluate the logical development of E&I deliverables from key input documents, different deliverable types and typical deliverables required for each project stage
- Apply the key principals for producing 2D deliverables and modelling E&I designs in 3D
- Apply the key principals for incorporating Fieldbus and Smart MCCs into the overall plant design

Resource Requirements
Software
Web & Video conferencing software
Students will be provided with Blackboard Collaborate (or similar) for video and web conferencing. This will allow them to attend lectures, interact with lecturers and fellow students, and use the Remote Lab facility. Students will be required to download the latest version of Java and .NET in order to use these packages.
Skype
For ease of communicating with peers and lecturers, installation of this package is recommended.
Word, PowerPoint and Excel
It is recommended that students install at least a 2007 version of the Microsoft Office. Older versions will work, but sometimes create issues with file compatibility. If individuals are reluctant to use these, they can also use Open Office (www.openoffice.org).
Virus detection
As students are co-operating with people from throughout the world with a multitude of different PCs, it is recommended that they have good quality up-to-date virus detection software installed. The free version of AVG is sufficient. A thorough automated scan of computers at least once a week is recommended.
Learning Management System
EIT uses a state-of-the-art learning management system (Moodle) for lecturing and interacting with lecturers and fellow students. Students can chat, socialize, and collaborate on projects with similarly motivated and enthusiastic course participants.
Computing resource requirements
Computer
Students’ computers should have an Intel Core Duo CPU and 2 Gigabytes of RAM. Hard disk space available should be at least 2 Gigabytes free. If necessary the built-in hard drive can be augmented with an inexpensive USB drive. No particular special graphics card is required. The operating system should be Windows with Windows 7 Service Pack 1 as a minimum.
Internet
An ADSL Internet connection with a minimum speed of 128 kbps down and 64 kbps up is recommended.
Good quality headset and low cost web cam
Students will require a good quality stereo headset with analogue or USB connectors. In addition, a low-cost USB webcam is recommended. Students should budget in the order of $30 for a headset and $20 for a webcam. This will vary from country to country.
Technical Help
For difficulties with other online materials the lecturer should be contacted. Technical material will be accessible 24/7 through the online portal.
