COURSE OVERVIEW

  This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and. Theory learned will be applied using our state-of-the-art equipment.

 

The aim of this course is to provide sufficient information and proper techniques for senior civil engineers, managers and those who are responsible for the design and inspection of refractory and fireproofing materials in gas plant and refineries. It covers the burnpits including its general arrangement, types and suitable application of refractory bricks/tiles, monolithics and castable; refractory design, installation, inspection and repair based on international codes and standards as well as the details dealt in related to DEPs and other industrial codes.

 

The course will also cover the fireproofing procedure for steel structures and vessels skirting; the global sources of castables, refractories, fireproofing materials; the details and specifications of related materials like refractory mortars, ceramic fibre blankets, refractory bricks standard sizes, properties and fixing accessoriess; and the materials certification requirement for refractory and fireproofing materials.

 

 

At the end of the course, participants will be able to use of refractories in refineries, furnace linings and other areas; define thermal shocks, max temperature of different refractory materials and reinforcement of castables; conduct heat loss calculations through refractories and metallic pipe encasements using castables; and identify the refractory interface with metal/concrete and the thickness determination for each of applications/materials.
