 project
• Report and presentation on one of the following topics:
• Pump selection for a firefighting system
oSuppose an administrative building that is to be integrated with a
firefighting system.
oDesign the firefighting network (layout, diameters, accessories, etc.).
oDesign and select the pumping system to supply water to the network.
• Drinking water pumping station design
oSuppose a tourist village in the North Coast that is to be supplied with a
drinking water network.
oDesign the network thoroughly (layout, diameters, accessories).
oDesign and select the pumping system to supply water to the network.
