A practical reference for pipe layout and fabrication

Organized around pipefitting tasks, this handbook brings together working tables, examples, and quick-reference data for layout, installation, and pipebending. Its coverage spans bends and fittings, threading, plastic pipe, soldering and brazing, and fitting dimensions, alongside shop- and field-related fabrication topics. A dedicated reference section gathers job-useful information on subjects including metal spark tests, valve types, sheet-metal weights, and measures. The emphasis is on consulting categorized facts and figures for practical work, making the book a compact technical resource rather than a step-by-step account of a single project.
