Jim, I highly recommend that book! ;) I teach the class that George targeted in that link. (Thanks George!) It is a five week lecture course that meets live and online on either a Wednesday or a Friday. We will be starting the Wednesday edition of that class on December 2nd. The class is held from 1pm to 3pm (CENTRAL TIME) every Wednesday from 02DEC to 06JAN. The class is intense and requires a pretty serious commitment from the students. It is also a lot of fun! We just wrapped up the final exam for the first edition of that class and everyone did a good job of understanding the "normal pressure method". If you do not know how to do basic hydraulic calc's, I would be more than happy to set up a Monday edition of that 5 week class if there is enough interest out there. If you are interested, please email me off forum at [email protected] for more details. Check out our classes at www.sprinkleracademy.com
