This review is from: Pipeline Rules of Thumb Handbook, Sixth Edition: A Manual of Quick, Accurate Solutions to Everyday Pipeline Engineering Problems (Paperback)
I have purchased many copies of this book over a period of nearly thirty years - if you design, build or operate pipelines this book is a must have. It is also very usefull in other engineering areas and would be valuable in any engineers bookcase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic tool, May 25, 2007
This review is from: Pipeline Rules of Thumb Handbook, Sixth Edition: A Manual of Quick, Accurate Solutions to Everyday Pipeline Engineering Problems (Paperback)
I have reviewed this book, which I should have bought years earlier.
All subjects are easy to find and very clearly explained.
One needs just basic technical education to work with this book and do not have to be a pipeline construction engineer.
Also your prices are very competative for us in Europe.
I will certainly come back to you.
