If reasonable construction technology cannot be adopted, it will not only affect the normal operation of the equipment, cause greater energy loss, but also increase the frequency of pipeline damage. It has a negative impact on the overall safety of the building. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the analysis and mastery of the construction technology of electromechanical integrated pipeline in construction, adopt effective treatment method according to the form of building space, strengthen the scientific nature of pipeline layout, and promote the safe and efficient operation of electromechanical equipment.展开更多
