Piping and Pipeline Engineering: Design, Construction, Maintenance, Integrity, and Repair
Piping and Pipeline Engineering: Design, Construction, Maintenance, Integrity, and Repair
Piping and Pipeline Engineering: Design, Construction, Maintenance, Integrity, and Repair is written to present in sequence, and in a way that balances practice and theory, the fundamental principles in materials, design, fabrication, inspection, testing, operation, maintenance and integrity of plant piping systems and pipelines.
The book is intended for designers, construction engineers and inspectors, project engineers, system and maintenance engineers. It applies to plant piping systems and pipelines in power, utilities, waterworks, and chemical process industries, as well as oil and gas pipelines.
Over the years, each industry has developed expertise and technology to resolve its unique challenges. Yet, the fundamental engineering concepts (materials, design, construction and integrity) are the same, and much is to be gained by understanding how different industries approach and resolve similar problems. That is why the book covers both piping systems and pipelines.

The art of design and construction of piping systems and pipelines dates back to the earliest civilizations. Its progress reflects the steady evolution of cultures around the world: the needs of developing agricultures, the growth of cities, the industrial revolution and the use of steam power, the discovery and use of oil, the improvements in steel making and welding technology, the discovery and use of plastics, the fast growth of the chemical and power industries, and the increasing need for reliable water, oil and gas pipelines.
