As far as I know , a free book no. Unless you are being tested thru a company. There are 4 levels of certification . Math a big part pythagram theorem ,learn it . Ask a local pipe fitter union local , or the closest nccer program provider . I myself am a level 4 pipe fitter and also a boilermaker both nccer certified . Trig, geometry, algebra , blueprints ,equipment......etc.
Threaded On End
The U.S. fabricated pipe and pipe-fitting industry is strongly dependent on the health of the domestic construction industry, which, after enduring rough economic conditions in the late 1980s and early 1990s, rebounded in the mid-1990s.

Get your book out study it thoroughly and take the test. If you dont pass it at least you have an idea of what is on it. <><> ---While I certainly agree with this answer, it's also important to note that there are a lot of things on the NCCER test for pipe-fitting that you will pretty much never run into in the field. With that, and the above statement, being said, there is a company called Contren that has a learning series for any craft in the NCCER certification series. Here's the link to the pipe-fitter's series in the Related Link below. The company is not called Contren. Contren is NCCER's copyrighted curriculum that they developed for trainees. It can be purchased through Pearson Publishing. here is the link to find it; http://nccer.pearsonconstructionbooks.com/store/browse.aspx?st=69118
The fitting allowance is the difference: (pipe end to fitting center measurement) minus (pipe end to end measurement). It is the amount of length the fitting adds to the end of the pipe (to get the center of the turn).
To effectively remove a PVC pipe from a fitting, you can use a heat gun to soften the PVC material and then twist and pull the pipe out of the fitting. Alternatively, you can use a PVC pipe cutter to cut the pipe close to the fitting and then remove the remaining piece with pliers or a wrench. Be sure to wear protective gear and work carefully to avoid damaging the fitting or the pipe.
It's HARD!!!!! Study for a couple of years and good luck!
measure the length of the fitting first. Then insert pipe into fitting and mark a line on pipe. measure that bit of pipe. deduct off the length of fitting and half it to give you your x dimension
To properly install a galvanized pipe compression fitting, follow these steps: Cut the pipe to the desired length using a pipe cutter. Clean the cut end of the pipe and the inside of the fitting with a wire brush. Slide the compression nut and ferrule onto the pipe. Insert the pipe into the fitting until it reaches the bottom. Tighten the compression nut onto the fitting using a wrench until secure. Check for leaks by turning on the water supply. These steps will ensure a proper installation of a galvanized pipe compression fitting.

The best way to connect PVC pipe to a barb fitting is by using a hose clamp. This will securely hold the pipe onto the fitting and prevent any leaks.
To properly install a compression fitting on a copper pipe, follow these steps: Cut the copper pipe to the desired length using a pipe cutter. Slide the compression nut and compression ring onto the pipe. Insert the pipe into the fitting until it reaches the bottom. Tighten the compression nut onto the fitting with a wrench until it is secure. Check for any leaks by turning on the water supply. Following these steps will ensure a proper installation of a compression fitting on a copper pipe.
