ASPE Engineering Plumbing Design 2
Engineering Plumbing Design is a unique book in that the mix between hands-on practical information and the scientific underpinnings of plumbing design is perfectly matched for the designer’s needs. In contrast, many books have been published on plumbing that are filled with numerous illustrations of tools, fittings, tables, etc., which do little to assist in the design of engineered plumbing systems and, in particular, they leave out the scientific basis needed to make sound decisions in designing plumbing systems.
