Review: This book, now in its sixth edition, provides thousands of formulae, calculations, tables etc. for solving everyday pipeline problems. It covers cables and ropes (estimating their strength, safe loads, stresses, their diameters, field troubles etc.); belts and shafts (length of a V-belt, stress in shaft key, horsepower transmitted etc.); pipeline pigging (sizing plates, calliper pigging, flooding for hydrotest, dewatering and drying, fluid power formulae etc.) and other topics (how to estimate length of material in a roll, weight of round steel shafting, common nails, steel fitting dimension, wire resistance, land descriptions etc. etc.).
