Synopsis:

Including engineering data from a wide range of sources, "An Engineer's Guide to Pressure Equipment" provides an essential introduction to the technical and adminstrative aspects of vessel manufacture and use, covering the basic principles of pressure equipment design, manufacture, quality assurance/inspection, and operation during its working life. The author competently guides the reader through the most commonly used current and recent pressure vessel codes and standards. Pressure equipment has been subjected to an iterative development process that now makes it one of the most complex technical areas of mechanical engineering. The technology of pressure equipment continues to expand rapidly and recent developments in The European Pressure Equipment Directive, UK Pressure Systems Safety Regulations, and technical codes and standards are resulting in exciting changes within the industry. Key features of the volume include: concise, essential information about pressure equipment; compact and easily accessible format; fully illustrated; and core technical and legislative data. "An Engineer's Guide to Pressure Equipment" fulfils a key role in presenting up-to-date information on pressure equipment in a practical and easy to use format. It should be a valuable source of reference for pressure equipment designers, manufacturers and end-users.
