MECHANICAL ENGINEERINGIntroduction
Piping Stress Analysis involves examining the flexibility and stiffness of a particular piping configuration under different types of loading, primary and secondary types. Piping Stress Analysis determines the maximum stresses in the piping system and suggests necessary modifications.
Less flexible systems are more susceptible to failure. Stress analysis helps revise the piping layout and its supports to avoid high local stresses. The course will discuss different types of stresses affecting piping flexibility, code criteria and methods of analysis, simple methods, and computerized methods. Participants will practice performing such analysis using one of the software for the same.
Objective
Upon completion of this course, attendees will be able to apply the piping system stress analysis requirements of ASME B31.3 to process plant piping systems and understand how to use piping analysis software to meet these requirements.
Audience
Engineers who are responsible for performing piping system stress analysis and others who must have a good understanding of its requirements are invited to attend this course.

Methodology
A highly interactive combination of lectures and discussion sessions will be managed to maximize the amount and quality of information and knowledge transfer. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions and motivating everybody to find the right answers. You will also be encouraged to raise your questions and to share in the development of the right answers using your analysis and experiences. Tests of the multiple-choice type will be made available daily to examine the effectiveness of delivering the course.
Very useful Course Materials will be given.
