If your question's about maintenance, your answer's in here. No matter what the equipment procedure, technology or facility, the Fifth Edition of the Maintenance Engineering Handbook, edited by Lindley Higgins, will give you more practical information, cost-cutting techniques and just plain good ideas that you'll find anywhere else. Because ours is the only Handbook that covers every type of plant and factory, plus refineries, hospitals, schools and offices--and gives you the hard-won wisdom of 55 different expert contributors. Steamline your functions and improve efficiency with: effective systems to reduce breakdowns and downtime; a company-wide standardization program; new record-keeping systems that cut expenses; latest labor-saving computer applications; a 5-step program for simplifying repetitive operations; maintenance routines for all types of mechanical, electrical and service equipment; and much, much more.
Summary: Great reference work for the professional maintenance engineer
