The 2008 Edition of the National Electrical Code(R) contains a range of complex revisions that electrical personnel and students must be made aware of. Stallcup's(R) Illustrated Code Changes simplifies this process using clear, concise explanations and detailed full-color illustrations to explain the 400 broadest revisions. Following the organization of the 2008 NEC(R), Stallcup reviews each change in numerical order to correlate with the Articles and Sections as they appear in the Code in an effort to maximize student comprehension and make navigating the NEC(R) quick and easy. Known as the most thorough Code change book available, Stallcup's(R) offers expert descriptions on key topics such as wiring and protection, wiring methods and materials, equipment for general use, and much more.

Inherently safer plants begin with the initial design. Here is where integrity and reliability can be built in at the lowest cost, and with maximum effectiveness. This book focuses on process safety issues in the design of chemical, petrochemical, and hydrocarbon processing facilities. It discusses how to select designs that can prevent or mitigate the release of flammable or toxic materials, which could lead to a fire, explosion, or environmental damage. All engineers on the design team, the process hazard analysis team, and those who make basic decisions on plant design, will benefit from its comprehensive coverage, its organization, and the extensive references to literature, codes, and standards that accompany each chapter.
