Course Description
This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops.
The latest ASME Post-Construction Code is an extension of the current API standards for Risk-Based-Inspection (API 580, API 581), Fitness-For-Service assessment (API 579), Damage Mechanisms (API 571) and repairs. They are a practical and important addition to the ASME design and construction codes, their objective is to prevent failures by timely detection and analysis of degraded conditions, and application of the right repair technique.
In this highly practical course, participants will learn how to (1) plan inspections, (2) evaluate inspection results and calculate the remaining life of corroded and degraded equipment, and (3) select and implement the right repair by applying the new ASME Post-Construction Codes (PCC).
The course will follow the same outline as the ASME PCC Codes, making the course notes a practical and handy reference to illustrate and explain the various requirements of the new ASME PCC codes.
Further, the course will review the recommended practices of API 579 and API 571 and how they can be applied on Fitness-for-Service and damage mechanisms affecting process plant equipment.
The course covers general engineering assessment, damage mechanisms, and specific assessment procedures that include the fitness-for-service of equipment and materials of construction used in refining, petrochemical, and chemical industries. It also covers brittle fracture applications for low temperature refinery and petrochemical services, assessment of corrosion damage, assessment of blisters/laminations, and assessment of crack-like flaws, assessment of fire damage, and the Run-Repair-Replace decision-making process.
The participants will not only be able to apply the rules to calculate the remaining life of corroded and degraded equipment, and make run-or-repair decisions, but will also understand the historical and technical basis of the rules.
The course is illustrated through a large number of case studies and does involve some calculations (with a hand-held calculator) to calculate failure margins and remaining life.
