b. Baker-Building Layout. The proposed layout for the petroleum base laboratory within a Baker building (fig. 2-4)

provides for the laboratory proper, an office, a supply room, a storage room, and an octane room, plus a washroom for

laboratory personnel and a boiler room for the heating equipment. In figure 2-4, item numbers 1 through 26 are identical

with unit numbers 1 through 26 in paragraph 1-7. The cabinets and allied equipment are assembled along the four walls

and in the center of the laboratory proper.

2-5. CONNECTING SERVICE LINES.

The pipe rack at the rear of each cabinet is equipped with five service lines: an electric conduit, a gas pipe, a

compressed air pipe, a water pipe, and a drainpipe. Each line is provided an outlet to which testing apparatus and

laboratory equipment can be connected. The service lines are colored as follows: gas, blue; water, green; air, orange;

and drain, black. A flexible metal braided hose is also fastened to each rack. The hose can be removed and used for

connecting the service lines around corners, over doorways, and wherever cabinets are not adjacent to one another (fig.

2-5).
