Primer On Engineering Standards

The first part has 14 chapters written by 16 distinguished code authorities with updated information pertaining to continuing priorities. Distinctive in this part is the inclusion of new contributors who have added unique perspectives to the material that was first published in the third edition of the Companion Guide. Likewise the authors who previously updated the material in the third edition have contributed additional information. A new chapter on seismic protection for pressure piping systems reflects the importance of the topic especially in regard to aging nuclear reactors.
