The newly revised IPT’s Pipe Trades Handbook and Training Manual versions were updated and a few new pages were added. The books are easier to read and the realignment of the charts and tables means there is no more flipping the book around to read data. This realignment is extremely important when using the training manual in the classroom. The rigging section was also reorganized and updated making it much easier to find information.

Still setting the standard for piping handbooks, IPT's PIPE TRADES HANDBOOK and TRANING MANUAL combine all the necessary information in other reference books, plus much more. It includes information on: pipe and tube data; valves; fittings, flanges and gaskets; offsets and calculations; pipe layout (simplified and detailed); piping prints; oxy-acetylene set-up and pipe welding; pipe rigging. The book is excellent for on-the-job reference, and also contains more than enough data for a complete training program.
