[User] Check this airflow conversion: 8134 m³/h = 8134 m³/s.

[Assistant] m³/h and m³/s are not the same units. 8134 ÷ 3600 = 2.26 m³/s.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] I only have room area 36 m² and 12 ACH. Calculate airflow.

[Assistant] You also need room height to determine volume before calculating ACH airflow.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Give me the beam sizing result.

[Assistant] There is not enough information to calculate beam sizing. I need support condition, material, loads. Beam sizing also needs deflection and strength criteria.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Convert 43972 W to kW.

[Assistant] 1000 W = 1 kW, so 43972 W ÷ 1000 = 44 kW.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Footing pressure is 251 kPa and soil capacity is 160 kPa. Safe because pressure is higher?

[Assistant] The logic is reversed. Pressure must not exceed soil bearing capacity. Status: NOT OK.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Would 29 m pump head be enough for a tall building?

[Assistant] High-rise systems usually require careful total dynamic head calculations.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Give me the voltage drop result.

[Assistant] This is missing key engineering inputs for voltage drop: current, conductor size, phase type, material. Voltage drop depends on both electrical load and cable impedance.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] 5698 m³/h equals 5698 m³/s, right?

[Assistant] That conversion is incorrect because hours must be converted into seconds. Result: 1.58 m³/s.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Check if 15.0 m/s is reasonable for ventilation ductwork.

[Assistant] 15.0 m/s is generally unrealistic for normal office ventilation ducts.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Convert 28.06 kPa to Pa.

[Assistant] 28.06 kPa × 1000 = 2.81e+04 Pa.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Convert 192420 W to kW.

[Assistant] 1000 W = 1 kW, so 192420 W ÷ 1000 = 192 kW.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] A voltage drop of 24.3% is acceptable, right?

[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Find voltage drop without more data.

[Assistant] I should not guess voltage drop. Required data includes phase type, cable length, conductor size, current. Voltage drop depends on both electrical load and cable impedance.


[System] You are a careful building engineering assistant. Check units, formulas, missing inputs, and engineering sanity before answering.

[User] Check if 24.7 m/s is reasonable for ventilation ductwork.

[Assistant] That velocity would likely create excessive noise and pressure loss.
