1. Introduction Available to Purchase

Numerous reviews were performed on the original text for this book, and manuscripts for this book were used to teach the topics in the text to four separate classes of engineers at SRS prior to publication. Comments from these four day classes were incorporated into the manuscripts between classes to improve the quality of presentation. Even so, improvements and some corrections to the text have been noted since ASME classes were taught after publication. This Supplement captures these additions and changes. Also included in this Supplement are appendices to summarize this book through “A Discussion of DLF's for Piping Design” and the “Design of Piping Systems for Dynamic Loads From Fluid Transients”.
