{"product_id":"handbook-for-process-plant-project-engineers","title":"Handbook for Process Plant Project Engineers","description":"This excellent book systematically identifies the issues surrounding the effective linking of project management techniques and engineering applications. It is not a technical manual, nor is it procedure-led. Instead, it encourages creative learning of project engineering methodology that can be applied and modified in different situations.  \u003cp\u003eIn short, it offers a distillation of practical ‘on-the job’ experience to help project engineers perform more effectively. While this book specifically addresses process plants, the principles are applicable to other types of engineering project where multidisciplinary engineering skills are required, such as power plant and general factory construction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt focuses on the technical aspects, which typically influence the configuration of the plant as a whole, on the interface between the various disciplines involved, and the way in which work is done – the issues central to the co-ordination of the overall engineering effort.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt develops an awareness of relationships with other parties – clients, suppliers, package contractors, and construction managers – and of how the structure and management of these relationships impact directly on the performance of the project engineer. Readers will welcome the author’s straightforward approach in tackling sensitive issues head on.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCOMPLETE CONTENTS\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Introduction \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e A process plant \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA project and its management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA brief overview\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe engineering work and its management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe project’s industrial environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe commercial environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe contracting environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe economic environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStudies and proposals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlant layout and modelling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValue engineering and plant optimization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHazards, loss, and safety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecification, selection and purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFluid transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBulk solids transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlurries and two-phase transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydraulic design and plant drainage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eObservations on multidiscipline engineering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetail design and drafting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe organization of work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction contracts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommissioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommunication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChange and chaos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast-track projects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdvanced information management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProject strategy development\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKey issues summary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"John Wiley \u0026 Sons Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54217875259736,"sku":"9781860583704","price":124.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781860583704__67c1e1b0d96ff_8022f494-13f9-49ac-81ec-047b87c3f2f2.jpg?v=1741157271","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/handbook-for-process-plant-project-engineers","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
