COURSE OVERVIEW

Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. This course introduces participants to the design, analysis, and fabrication of pressure vessels fabricated as per the ASME Section VIII, Division 2 Code. It concentrates on those topics which are relevant to proper operation and maintenance of vessels after they have been placed in service. The course will emphasize on the design, inspection, examination and testing, as well as the proper assessment of inspection results for efficient and effective repairs; inspection rules of ASME Section VIII, Division 2 Code; example calculations used to depict the use of ASME Code in design; and assessment of repairs and modifications. The course will also differentiate Division 1 and Division 2 of ASME Section VIII and discuss the theories of failure and design margins of various codes; the general requirements of ASME VIII, Division 2 and the responsibilities of various parties; the material requirements as well as material toughness and impact testing requirements; the design rules for internal pressure, buckling, formed and flat head and new method for design of openings and external loadings.At the completion of the course, participants will be able to employ stress analysis methods and acceptance criteria for design analysis; classify stress and linearization as well as fatigue analysis and its exemption rules; simplify elastic-plastic analysis and list the various requirements for fabrication, PWHT, tolerances and NDE requirements; perform pressure testing, documentation and stamping; and identify the pressure requirements and example problems.
