It           provides the most complete coverage of the Code      that is available today and is packed with           additional information useful to those responsible   for the design and mechanical integrity of process   piping. The author is a long-serving member of the   ASME B31.3, Process Piping Code committee.           Dr. Becht explains the principal intentions of the   Code, covering the content of each of the Code's     chapters. Book inserts cover special topics such   as calculation of refractory lined pipe wall       temperature, spring design, design for vibration,  welding processes, bonding processes and           expansion joint pressure thrust..Appendices in th  book include useful information for pressure       design and flexibility analysis as well as         guidelines for computer flexibility analysis and   design of piping systems with expansion joints.    From the new designer wanting to know how to size  a pipe wall thickness or design a spring to the    expert piping engineer wanting to understand some  nuance or intent of the Code, everyone whose      career involves process piping will find this to  be a valuable reference.
