The book titled ''The Main Drainage Of The Houses Of Parliament: Westminster, On The Shone Hydropneumatic System'' was written by Isaac Shone and was published in 1887. The book provides a detailed account of the main drainage system of the Houses of Parliament in Westminster, London, which was designed and installed by Shone himself. The system is based on the hydropneumatic principle, which involves the use of water and compressed air to create a pressure differential that drives the flow of sewage and waste. Shone’s design was considered revolutionary at the time and was widely adopted in other buildings and cities across the world.The book contains technical descriptions of the system, including the various components such as pumps, valves, and pipes. It also includes illustrations and diagrams to help readers better understand the workings of the system. In addition to the technical details, the book also provides historical context and background information on the development of sewage systems in London and other cities during the 19th century. It is a valuable resource for engineers, architects, and historians interested in the history of sanitation and public health.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
