I am a piping designer with 35 years of plant layout and piping design and supervision experience. I have found that there are many books on piping design covering the basic components and layout requirements thru to the highly technical on subjects such as fluid flow and stress analysis, all of which have their place and many of which I possess in my own personal library. This one bridges the gap. The author explains in an entertaining writing style the practicalities of piping design. Where basic piping layout books leave off Mr. Silowash picks up with explanations and insight into the real life challenges of piping design. The book also provides instruction in piping design topics such as piping general arrangements, pipe supporting, and technical explanations of the formulae used in the B31 codes that are easily followed by any technical school graduate. It provides the designer working on piping layouts insight into the more technical aspects of design and is an excellent starting point for the mechanical engineer who aspires to the world of piping engineering. All-in-all a very informative and a must-have book for anyone wishing to grow their knowledge of piping design.
