Offshore Piping Design

About the Book

Are you afraid to call yourself a designer? Are you a designer or just a computer software operator? Are you a copycat? Or are you a creator of design? Are you the ideal CAD offshore designer? Well, you can be. Offshore Piping Design will broaden your knowledge and build your confidence in your job performance. Every day, CAD people arrive at their job, sit, and stare at the computer screen in the mornings. They think to themselves, “Another day of drawing lines, circles, and squares.” They do that because that’s what they know to do but have little or no idea of what they are trying to develop. Are you one of these computer people, or are you satisfied with this? Would you like to be doing more? Well, you can. Offshore Piping Design can make the difference by giving you the knowledge and methods to develop designs that will be a pleasure for you to view on your computer screen in the mornings.
