This two day seminar covers: basic hydraulics theory, pipe manufacturing methods, centrifugal pumps, pipe sizing and selection, valves and instruments, basic design calculations, pipeline pigging and pump station guidelines. This training manual contains theory, worked example problems, tables, charts, illustrations and drawings etc and has been designed to be a valuable future resource for the office. This training manual and associated training seminar is a distillation of the most relevant sections from KASA’s two flagship seminars - "Liquid Piping Systems Fundamentals" and “Pump Fundamentals’. Further information has been added specifically related to the water industry. Please contact KASA Redberg for more information on this series of seminars as well as others on offer.
