   The main contents include an introduction to pipeline industry, pipeline geotechnical design, pipeline mechanical design, transmission processes design, pipeline construction, pipeline crossing, offshore pipeline construction and pipeline engineering management. Both domestic and foreign advanced methods of pipeline design and construction are compiled in this volume. In addition, some materials have been collected from both technical compositions and professional periodicals. To stimulate interest and knowledge of real situations, each chapter presents pictures and tables to enable the reader to more easily visualize study or master the content of this book. Included part at the end of the book is an English-Chinese glossary to assist the Chinese readers in overcoming language obstacles.
