Water Supply and Drainage for Buildings by Syed A. Haq Pdf

This book provides a holistic and clear understanding of water supply, sanitary and storm drainage systems for buildings: one-story to skyscrapers, to be built in both the developed and underdeveloped areas. It describes the systems and their entire components - major to minor - and provides exclusive guidelines for the planning, design, installation and maintenance of the systems. The book starts with an introduction to the systems, and ends with a chapter on the presentation of the systems in drawings, others being discussions on all the components, devices, equipment etc., in their respective dedicated chapters - discussing: Pipe, Fittings, Accessories, and Appurtenance; Pumping and Pumping Systems; Water and Hot Water Supply Systems in Building; Appliances and Fixtures; Building Sanitary Drainage; Off-site Sewage Disposal; On-site Sewage Management; Drainage of Storm Water; and Water Supply and Drainage Planning. Written and the figures are drawn by an author of three engineering books of international repute, the last being the 2nd edition of the first one, who served the Public Works Department of Bangladesh - a national building development authority - for more than 35 years. This book is the fallout of practical experience in the building industry, teaching in universities, facilitating training and sharing thoughts in seminars and symposiums on related subject-matters, since the early 90s until today. Figures being drawn by the author using a rarely-used drawing tool help provide additional attraction to the readers. Additionally, the inclusion of worked out examples of designing the major system-components will undoubtedly bring utmost satisfaction to its readers. This book will be helpful for use in a wide range of courses, both undergraduate and post-graduate degree programs, related to building, environmental and civil engineering, architecture, and many more. Building service professionals will benefit greatly. Other traders, administrators in this field, and policy-makers would not be left out of the beneficiaries as well.

Water, Sanitary and Waste Services for Buildings by A.F.E. Wise,John Swaffield Pdf

Water, sanitary and waste services represent a substantial proportion of the cost of construction, averaging 10% of the capital costs of building and with continuing costs in operation and maintenance. Nevertheless, they are often regarded as a 'Cinderella' within the building process. Parts of many different codes and regulations impact on these services, making an overall viewpoint more difficult to get. This new edition of this classic text draws together material from a variety of sources to provide the comprehensive coverage not available elsewhere. It is a resource for the sound design, operation and maintenance of these services and should be on the bookshelf of every building services engineer and architect.

Water Supply and Drainage in Buildings by Lawrence S. Galowin Pdf

Excerpt from Water Supply and Drainage in Buildings: Proceedings of an International Symposium, September 28-30, 1976, National Academy of Sciences, Washington, D. C The Hunter technique and values assigned to the parameters have changed little since their establishment 35 years ago, and in view of their recent experiences in large-scale building projects, engineers have begun questioning the accuracy of this method. The results of several studies indicate that significant potential savings, in both initial costs and operating costs, can be achieved with an accurate knowledge of the demand for water within buildings. This position paper discusses alternative mathematical models, the nature and extent of a field data acquisition program, the human factor element, and the preparation of a design guide. Accurate knowledge of water usage patterns is required to establish a national policy in water related energy conservation.

Water Services Management by David Stephenson Pdf

Water services include water supply, sewerage and stormwater drainage. The facilities needed for these services are pipelines, reservoirs and treatment works; but the service goes beyond the infrastructure. It includes economics, billing, and business management. Although these services exist in every city, being advanced by the growing use of automation and information technology, costs are also increasing without many consumers seeing increased benefits. Customer service is therefore becoming important to the industry. Water Services Management is intended to educate engineers to manage and improve water services, rather than simply designing and constructing treatment works and distribution systems. The text covers water supply and drainage from the hydraulic and economic points of view, and while design and construction practices are reviewed, the focus of the book is on improving existing systems to turn the emerging industry into an attractive business. Topics covered include: Potable water supply, sewerage and stormwater drainage. Hydraulic management: storage, peak flow attenuation and pumping. Water quality: standards, pollution control and treatment. Infrastructure management: rehabilitation, reconstruction, upgrading and maintenance. Economic efficiency: asset management, privatization, and risk analysis. Improving economic viability via efficient use of energy and construction project management. Characteristics encountered in developing countries are also considered, including: Low cost sanitation, water supply standards and off-grid energy sources. Capacity building and appropriate technologies. Financing, operation and benchmarking.

Transient Airflow in Building Drainage Systems by John Swaffield Pdf

Giving you the first comprehensive presentation of the ground breaking research undertaken at Heriot Watt University, with Research Council and industrial funding, this book brings a new perspective to the design of building drainage and vent systems. It provides the building services community with clear and verifiable design methods that will be robust enough to meet challenges such as climate change and water conservation; population migration to the mega cities of the developing world, and the consequent pressures of user concentration; the rise of the prestige building and the introduction of new appliances and control strategies. These all combine to make traditional codified design guidance insufficient. Many assumptions in existing codes defining the entrained airflows within building drainage vent systems cannot be theoretically supported, so designers concerned with these systems need analysis and simulation capabilities which are at least as reliable as those enjoyed by other building services practitioners. The Method of Characteristics solution techniques which are well established in the pressure surge field are now used to provide solutions for drainage designers. The material is applied to a whole range of abstract scenarios then to a series of real world applications including the forensic modelling of the SARS virus spread within Amoy Gardens in 2003 and the refurbishment of the O2 Dome. Applications to specialised services, including underground station drainage and highly infectious disease treatment facilities are discussed and demonstrated, alongside the use of design and simulation techniques in support of product development. Aimed at both professional and academic users, this book serves both as a design aid and as a core text for specialist masters courses in public health and building services engineering.

Health Aspects of Plumbing by World Health Organization,World Plumbing Council Pdf

This publication describes the processes involved in the design installation and maintenance of modern plumbing systems. It recommends a number of plumbing system design and installation specifications that have demonstrated their validity from years of experience. It also examines the microbiological chemical physical and financial risks associated with plumbing and outlines the major risk management strategies that are used in the plumbing industry and emphasizes the importance of measures to conserve supplies of clean water. This work is dedicated to assisting developing countries in achieving the best possible plumbing levels to ensure the highest health benefits from use of sound plumbing practices. It is aimed at administrators and plumbers working in areas that are served by a mains drinking- water supply or sewerage system or are about to install a mains drinking- water supply or sewerage system. It should be of particular value to those working in countries or areas that are in the early stages of introducing modern plumbing systems. While it draws attention to the problems of drinking- water supply and waste removal in developing countries and outlines some of the strategies currently used it does not systematically cover issues specific to developing countries.

Transient Free Surface Flows in Building Drainage Systems by John Swaffield Pdf

Climate change will present a series of challenges to engineers concerned with the provision of both building internal appliance drainage networks and rainwater systems within the building boundary, generally identified as the connection to the sewer network. Climate change is now recognised as presenting both water shortage and enhanced rainfall design scenarios. In response to predictions about immanent climate change Transient Free Surface Flows in Building Drainage Systems addresses problems such as the reduction in water available to remove waste from buildings, and conversely, the increase in frequency of tropical-type torrential rain. Starting with introductory chapters that explain the theories and principles of solid transport, free surface flows within drainage networks, and attenuating appliance discharge flows, this book allows readers from a variety of backgrounds to fully engage with this crucial subject matter. Later chapters apply these theories to the design of sanitary and rainwater systems. Case studies highlight the applicability of the method in assessing the appropriateness of design approaches. In this unique book, research in modelling for free surface flows at Edinburgh’s Heriot-Watt University is drawn on to provide a highly authoritative, physics-based study of this complex engineering issue.
