Basic shaft alignment workbook by John A. Piotrowski. This Workbook is primarily used as a training guide for people attending shaft alignment training courses and then, hopefully as a field guide for the tradesperson, technician, foreman, and engineer doing machinery alignment in the field. I have tried to keep the text to a minimum and portray as many of the alignment procedures and techniques in graphical form or in pictures as much as possible.
