"Pipe Drafting and Design, Fourth Edition, is a tried and trusted guide to the terminology, drafting methods, and applications of pipe, fittings, flanges, valves, and more. Those new to this subject will find no better introduction on the topic, with detailed explanations of piping system components including mechanical equipment, easy step-by-step instructions, exercises, review questions, hundreds of clear illustrations, explanations of drawing techniques, methodology and symbology used in the creation of piping and instrumentation diagrams, piping arrangement drawings, sections and elevations, and piping isometric drawings. This fully updated and expanded new edition also explains procedures for building 3D models and gives examples of a complete field-scale project including flow diagrams, civil drawings, structural steel drawings, vendor data drawings, project specifications, and other relevant piping drawings and documents used in the real world. Key features: Provides tactics on the design and drafting of industrial piping systems, from fundamental to detailed advice on the development of piping drawings, using manual and CAD techniques; Covers 3D model images that provide an uncommon opportunity to visualize an entire piping facility; New 3D illustrations take you inside to see the internals of vessels, exchangers and other pieces of mechanical equipment; includes exercises and questions designed for review and practice; Addresses the latest 3D modeling software programs and 3D scanning systems. The latest relevant standards and codes are addressed, making this a valuable and complete reference not just for experienced engineers but also for entry-level pipe and plant drafters, designers in industry, and students and researchers interested in the design of industrial piping systems."--Back cover.
