Pipes can be made of a variety of materials and water is stored in reservoirs prior to distribution. Pressures affect pipe thickness, and static head, friction and transient pressures are explained with graphs and equations for detailed design. The book gives design methods for these components.Water quality may need alternative purification methods. Best design is covered so that economical and sustainable solutions result. The fittings like valves and pumps are described. The book is aimed at engineers who design and install pipes. Other people needed to obtain a viable solution include financiers, surveyors,environmentalists and social scientists, and their role is explained.
