5.0 out of 5 stars Design of Special Hazard Fire Suppression Systems, January 8, 2005
This review is from: Design of Special Hazard & Fire Alarm Systems (Paperback)
As for his previous work Robert Gagnon have written another very helpful guide to fire suppression systems' understanding. The book is a collection of all those fire suppression systems which are commonly installed in high risk plantation and include accurate description and basic calculation design procedures. Even though I consider the book very valuable, I would have expected greater henphasis on halon alternatives, including design procedures.
For all those who are approching the subject the book represent a must. If you are looking for details, better move on more specific pubblications.
