Features: This book is one of the "Mechanical and Electrical Drawing Series." Based on current national standards, it outlines the basic knowledge of pipeline engineering drawings, the development and surveying drawings of pipeline components, structural drawings of pipe materials, pipe fittings, pipeline flanges, pipeline valves, pipeline threaded fasteners, pipe support structures, and pipeline accessories. It covers the reading of pipeline engineering drawings, heating, ventilation, and plumbing construction drawings, welding drawings, construction drawings, and steel structure construction drawings, basically including the knowledge and skills required for reading pipeline engineering drawings. This book can be used as a training and self-study textbook for pipeline installation and maintenance personnel.
[Preface] Drawings are the language of technical communication in the engineering field, playing an irreplaceable role in engineering. Engineers need to express design ideas, understand design concepts, and organize production and construction, all of which require learning to draw and read drawings, especially reading drawings. Given the importance of reading drawings, Chemical Industry Press has organized the publication of the "Mechanical and Electrical Drawing Series," including "Mechanical Drawing," "Electrical Drawing," "Instrumentation Drawing," and "Pipeline Drawing," with the aim of helping readers. This book is "Pipeline Drawing."
Pipeline engineering consists of pipeline components and pipeline support elements, used to transport, distribute, mix, separate, discharge, measure, control, or stop the flow of fluids. Pipeline engineering drawings are general terms for drawings drawn according to projection principles or relevant regulations and include necessary technical descriptions. A set of pipeline engineering construction drawings contains a wide range of knowledge, involving mechanical drawing, technical drawing, fluid mechanics, metal materials, welding, civil engineering, plumbing, national standards, national industrial standards, and national regulations. Therefore, drawings are also commonly referred to as the common written language of the engineering community.
On pipeline engineering construction drawings, only the names, quantities, materials, adopted standards, and construction specifications of the pipes, pipe fittings, flanges, bolted connections, gaskets, valves, and other components required for pipeline construction are provided. While the related structures, working principles, connection techniques, welding specifications, and construction requirements can only be understood through relevant materials and knowledge. This book primarily explains knowledge based on reading pipeline engineering drawings.
