The pipe required will be the sizehaving the same, or a greater capacity. For example: To find the size pipe required to supply five %-in., fourVa-in., two %-in., four 1-in. and one Ii-in. pipes, add: 5 X 18 = 90 4 X 28 = 112 2 X 57 = 114 4 X 100 = 400 1 X 232 = 232 94S The size required is 22-in., which e

The tools essential to the efficient operation of anemergency force are as follows: Heavy wrenches for the operation of large usually are made with detachable handles. T-handles are used in some cases and crosses or four-armhandles are used in others. The latter kind allows of amore continuous movement; it allows each man to applyhis force more directly and with less wasted energy thanwith the T-handle, where hand room is limited and themen are more crowded in their movements. More lever-age can be obtained with either handle by the use ofextensions in the form of short pieces of iron pipe, orhand spikes set into sockets on the ha
