Edward Saltzberg

Edward Wolfe Saltzberg, PE, CPD, FASPE, CEM, CIPE, (October 24, 1932- ) is an American plumbing, mechanical, and forensic engineer.[1][2][3]

On September 18, 1964, Saltzberg and six other engineers founded the American Society of Plumbing Engineers (ASPE). ASPE is the international organization for professionals skilled in the design, specification, and inspection of plumbing systems, with more than 60 chapters and 6,000 members in the U.S., Canada, Asia, Mexico, South America, Central America, the South Pacific, Australia, Europe, the Caribbean, and in the Middle East.[4] Saltzberg wrote ASPE's original bylaws and served in many roles, including as international president.[5][6] He was inducted as an ASPE fellow in 2008.[7]

In 1951, Saltzberg was invited to participate in the country's first four-year college Plumbing Engineering Program at Los Angeles City College.[1] The program was initially funded by Familian Pipe and Supply, but the program died after Saltzberg and the first class graduated in 1956.

For more than 60 years, Saltzberg has written governmental uniform plumbing code, testified in front of governmental committees representing the Industry and Safety Code Council, and he sits as a member of the California Building Standards Code Advisory Committee, serving on the Plumbing, Electrical, Mechanical, and Energy Committee [PEME].[1][8]

Saltzberg is the father-in-law of Katherine Saltzberg.[9]
