Product Description

This well illustrated, step-by-step approach is a vital reference for every inspector and designer of fire protection, sprinkler, architectural or engineering systems. Hydraulic calculations for the most commonly-encountered water-based fire protection systems are covered in detail. Manual hydraulic calculations are thoroughly covered and a computer disk is included providing the reader with the opportunity to calculate a wide variety of systems. Factors of successful design such as quality assurance, coordination, and ethical practice are covered to provide a realistic perspective on professional application of the methods presented. The latest technology, including the design of high speed water spray systems and water mist systems, is presented to reinforce the advances in water-based fire protection systems.

5.0 out of 5 stars Water Based Fire Suppression Systems, Jan 8 2005

By Valeriano Barril - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Design of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems (Paperback)

The book represents a powerful opportunity to understand those basic concepts that characterize water based fire suppression systems. Chapters are very well written and plenty of examples which represents an helpful tool to gain a deeper understanding.

For those whose have deep knowledge in the subject area already, I do advice to get the book anyway. It is essential for a good personal collection.
