Excerpt from Domestic Sanitary Engineering and Plumbing: Dealing With Domestic Water Supplies, Pump Hydraulic Ram Work, Hydraulics, Sanitary Work, Heating by Low Pressure, Hot Water, & External Plumbing Work In order to cover the subject without making the book unwieldy, and expensive to procure, it has been necessary to omit a great deal of elementary and general matter, and instead of devoting space to the Municipal side of Sanitary Engineering the scope of the work has been limited to the title of the book. Many formulæ have been introduced as an aid in the design of work, and in most cases these have been given in as simple a form as possible consistent with accuracy, whilst numerous examples have been worked to show their application. Although the book will be found valuable for Students of Domestic Sanitary Engineering and Plumbing for Examination purposes, the writer hopes that it will have a still greater value for those who are entrusted with the design, the supervision, and the execution of this branch of engineering work. Much time has been entailed in the preparation of suitable drawings, and where a catalogue illustration has been used, it is not intended to convey that a certain manufacturer's goods are superior to those of another firm, but to illustrate some principle or point under discussion. For valuable aid in the preparation of the illustrations the writer's thanks are due to his drawing assistant, Mr. John Burnside.
