Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plumbing: A Working Manual of American Plumbing Practice, Including Approved Fixtures, Piping Systems, House Drainage, and Modern Methods of Sanitation Modern methods of sanitation as well as the complications introduced by the development of the city building, have in late years placed responsibilities on the professional plumber far beyond the ability to wipe a joint and solve the ordinary drainage problems of a frame dwelling. The successful plumber must not only be a good workman who knows where to use lead pipe and where to use brass and iron, how to properly place the drains and the piping, and how to properly mount the fixtures; bit he must be versed in the principle of sanitation, the proper location of tanks, the sizes of water and drainage pipe, the laws of water flow, pressure, and many other questions involved in giving to any dwelling, office building, or factory, adequate and well designed water and drainage systems. This means that the up-to-date plumber must really be a sanitary engineer and it is to give the practical man authoritative information on these subjects that this little volume has been published. The article covers a discussion of the latest types of plumbing fixtures; house water supply with practical examples and diagram showing methods of installation; pumps and service pipes; connections for hot-water systems with temperature regulators; filters and water motors; gas piping and meter reading; sewage disposal and purification; sewer construction; and the description of a complete house drainage system. The authors are both men of reputation and long experience in practical plumbing work, and it is their hope as well as that of the publishers that this volume will prove of distinct value to the professional plumber as well as to those who are only interested in keeping in touch with modern progress.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles and Practice of Plumbing In these days of strong competition the man in any trade or profession who does not provide himself with the best tools, the most efficient appliances obtainable, for executing his work expeditiously and efficiently, does him self a great injustice. It is true that some men may become so skilled in their work that they can do what they want to do - can execute their work - with very poor instruments; can, in fact, do better work with poor tools than unskilled men can do with good tools: but no inexperienced man, no improver, no student-plumber, should remain content with his kit his bag of tools - until it contains a perfect tool for any and every piece of work he may be called upon to execute.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Plumbing Practice: From the Engineering Record, (Prior to 1887 the Sanitary Engineer), A Selected Reprint of Articles Describing Notable Plumbing Installations in the United States, and Questions and Answers on Problems Arising in Plumbing and House Drainage, With Five Hund Beside the frequent illustrated descriptions of notable and interesting current work, a great variety of questions in this field have been answered. In 1885 Plumbing and House Drainage Problems was published. The present volume, American Plumbing Practice, is a compilation of illustrated descriptions of plumbing installations in modern buildings of every character, together with Notes and Queries touching interesting points developed in practice, from articles which have appeared in The Engineering Record since the publication of Plumbing and House Drainage Problems. Within this period the towering office building has been developed, involving special problems of drainage and plumbing. The equipment of hotels, hospitals, amusement halls, swimming baths, and other public buildings has been upon the most thorough and elaborate scale, and in the description of the plumbing of residences examples may be found of nearly every class of dwelling. Its division of Notes and Queries is intended to supplement Plumbing Problems, bringing these queries well up to date. The greater part of the book consists of descriptive matter nowhere else available in permanent form. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures to Plumbers According to a promise made in the preface to the first series of these lectures, and also to many private correspondents, this volume is now issued. The Author's aim is not to preach any new doctrine but to deal with details Of every-day practice, many of which are not thought of by most writers on plumbing, or are considered as being too small and trivial to be worth consideration. The successful man is the one who studies details, and it is the attention paid to small matters that either makes or mars a job in plumbers' work. Being a good lead-bosser or a good joint-wiper is not nearly sufficient Many such men make serious mistakes owing to their lack of knowledge of first principles. Quite recently a large college was inspected and a report made by the Author as to the sanitary conditions. Amongst the many defects discovered were about twelve wash-basins with the overflow pipes connected to the waste pipes on the wrong sides of the traps; and yet the joints and the bends in the pipes were made as well as they possibly could be. It is not necessary to here dwell upon other such mistakes made in the execution of plumbers' work, as numbers of cases are referred to in the following pages.

Recognizing the fact that manual skill in the practice of the art may not be acquired frorn the printed page, the discussion of matters relating solely to handicraft, such as joint wiping, lead burning, etc., purposely has been omitted.
