This book covers piping calculations for liquids and gases in single phase steady state flow for various industrial applications. Pipe sizing and capacity calculations are covered mainly with additional analysis of strength requirement for pipes. In each case the basic theory necessary is presented first followed by several example problems fully worked out illustrating the concepts discussed in each chapter. Unlike a textbook or a handbook the focus is on solving actual practical problems that the engineer or technical professional may encounter in their daily work. The calculation manual approach has been found to be very successful and is seen in many recent McGraw Hill publications.
 
The book consists of ten chapters and three appendices. As far as possible calculations are illustrated using both US Customary System of units as well as the metric or SI units.
 
The book is suitable for practicing engineers and technicians working in the petroleum,Oil and gas, chemical, process, water and wastewater industry. It can also be used as a college text book for senior level civil and mechanical engineering courses at universities and technical colleges.
