PROGRAM OBJECTIVES:

  • Upon completion of this course, you will be able to

    Define the physical phenomena which affect the design of

    piping systems

  • Review ASME Code formulas and other methods by which

    these phenomena can be analyzed to determine resulting

    stresses

  • Evaluate those stresses relative to ASME Code limitations, the

    methods by which piping systems are fabricated, inspected and

    tested, and the additional requirements which need to be in a

    fabrication/installation specification to ensure adequate and

    proper installation
