Thanks for uploading that great list of books Anton.
What any one of those books would you recommend for a someone who is new to the industry such as myself? I'm on a traineeship in the minerals processing industry in Australia.

Do it once and Do it Right
Replied by Jop on topic Re: Process Plant Piping Books (Reference and Training)
Does anybody have this book?
If so I would like to know/see the Table of Contents
"Pipe Stress Engineering"
By: L. C. Peng
ISBN-10: 079180285X
Price: $139.00 (US)
Editor's Review:
An up-to-date and practical reference book on piping engineering and stress analysis, this book emphasizes three main concepts: using engineering common sense to foresee a potential piping stress problem, performing the stress analysis to confirm the problem, and lastly, optimizing the design to solve the problem. Systematically, the book proceeds from basic piping flexibility analysis, spring hanger selections, and expansion joint applications, to vibration stress evaluations and general dynamic analysis. Emphasis is placed on the interface with connecting equipment such as vessels, tanks, heaters, turbines, pumps and compressors. Chapters dealing with discontinuity stresses, special thermal problems and cross-country pipelines are also included. The book is ideal for piping engineers, piping designers, plant engineers, and mechanical engineers working in the power, petroleum refining, chemical, food processing, and pharmaceutical industries. It will also serve as a reference for engineers working in building and transportation services. It can be used as an advance text for graduate students in these fields.
