ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code

It's been said, time is money. We feel, however, that your time is more valuable than money. By using the Pressure Vessel Handbook you will have, at your fingertips, the latest information concerning the design and manufacturing of pressure vessels. The Handbook allows you to get to the task at hand; instead of spending tedious hours, your time, researching modified regulations, and investigating the newest developments within the industry. We feel the problem with mose technical books lies not in the lack of information, but rather with the overabundance of material. Choosing new material for the revision is possibly the most difficult decision we're forced to make. We receive countless letters from customers around the world; offering their suggestions on material they would like to see added to the next edition. We would like to thank everyone who has sent a recommendation. It's tempting to attach these proposals to the Handbook, but would it be practical? We don't want to bury the information needed for the users daily projects with that of a rarely occurring question-or-rarely needed information. We're sure our contributors understand the need to keep the books original philosophy focused, as do our faithful customers.
