Dimensioning plastic pipework
Nov 24, 2004 | REMIGIUS NIDERÖST
Plastic piping is used in the most varied areas of the civil engineering and building construction fields. Correct dimensioning of tubing and pipework is essential to ensure problem-free operation. A one-day advanced training course on this subject for planners and engineers was held at the Empa recently. The next course will be held on May 11th 2005 .
