Comment: Last sentence of 3rd paragraph states that propylene glycol has slightly better heat transfer capability than ethylene glycol. ILM 070305m v5.1 page 9, 2nd paragraph states the exact opposite. Please clarify.

Comment: On page 14 just above the Caution box. Before they put the new images in the ILM's there used to be 3 bullets, followed by a blank line, and then the sentence: "If the crane is to lift the load without tipping, the crane leverage must be greater than the load leverage." In this new version, the bullets are gone, but the text of the bullets is there. And following the text of the 3rd bullet, there is no space between it and the next sentence, creating a confusing run-on sentence. Have a look at previous versions for comparison.

Comment: Figures 24-27 all show dimension G at the top right of the image, but it should be dimension F. This dimension should be F because as you progress through the text and images of the example described in the text, when you get to Figure 27, the correct dimension G is shown near the centre of the image, resulting in a duplicate G at the top right. If you change the image as suggested above, you will also need to edit/change the text on page 20, paragraph 3, last sentence. Change to reference F instead of G. Also on page 20, the first sentence should reference Figure 26, not Figure 19.

Comment: On page 22, in the Specifications section of Example One, it states the Actual ID for the gasket as 50 mm. According to IPT Pipe Trades page 224, quote: The I.D. of gasket should equal the outside diameter of the pipe for full and raised face. end quote. It appears the author has used the NPS as the ID of the gasket, but according to IPT the ID of gasket should be OD of pipe (not NPS). In this Example One, it should be 60.3 mm (according to IPT page 33.) If you accept this comment, then also change the Specifications in Example Two on page 27, Actual ID should be 168.3 mm.

Comment: All tables in the module are in imperial. Most of the other learning modules are in imperial and metric. Why is it mixed? Wouldn't it be easier and more precisely for the trades using only one system (to avoid mistakes and misinterpretation)? Wouldn't it be easier to deal with only one system? Metric or imperial.
