    The document provides charts for estimating friction loss in plastic, steel, and copper pipes of various diameters from 1/2" to 2-1/2". The charts list head loss in feet per 100 feet of pipe for different flow rates in gallons per minute and flow velocities in feet per second. A note recommends a maximum flow velocity of 7 feet per second. A additional table lists equivalent lengths of pipe for various pipe fittings to estimate their friction loss.
