Reviews

Sean has done an incredible job of rewriting/updating the original text and figures to reflect current plant layout and piping design practices and methodologies. It's an extremely comprehensive book that ranks as one of the best on the subject that I've ever seen, and is sure to become a classic in its own right. - Richard Beale, author of The Planning Guide to Piping Design
