This review is from: Introduction to Pipe Stress Analysis (Hardcover)

A well discussed reference book in piping stress engineering. It covers the basic topics and discusses the underlying principles in flexibility analysis. I always keep this book in my office. Recommendable for beginners and experienced stress engineers. Also the other book authored by L.C. Peng is worthy to read Pipe Stress Engineering
