Good morning all,
I am an Excavating and grading contractor, in the last year I have studied and passed my test to design gravity septic systems in my state. I am preparing to take the test to design enhanced systems, ie mound systems and any other site modifications that fall under the scope of a designer.
My question is this, I am looking for a study reference to calculate the pump sizing. I know how to figure out the friction loss of various pipes, for orifice size, manifold set up etc.. I know how to figure the draw down of the pump and understand TDH. I am looking for a reference that puts it all together. I am the type of learner that will have it cold once I work through a system design, unfortunately the other designer in my area is not to forthcoming with help(understandable).
Thanks in advance for any input
