About this Training
This technical training program provides a practical framework for developing piping class specifications for industrial plant piping systems, covering applicable codes, joining methods, plant services, thickness calculation, component selection, and branch connection criteria.
The course is delivered 100% online and on-demand, allowing participants to study at their own pace. Instructor support will be provided through the consultation forum on the Virtual Campus. Participants receive 120 days of platform access to complete the course.
Course Outline
This module covers the main technical aspects required to develop piping class specifications for industrial piping systems according to ASME B31 requirements, reference standards, and complementary engineering criteria.
Participants will learn how to classify plant services, define operating and design conditions, establish pressure-temperature ranges, select piping components, and organize branch connection requirements within a complete piping class specification.
The course also includes practical case studies, conceptual questions, design and calculation sheets, and lessons learned based on real industrial projects.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
- Design piping class specifications for industrial piping systems
- Apply ASME B31 codes and relevant reference standards to piping design activities
- Define operating conditions, design conditions and pressure-temperature ranges
- Identify plant services and group them according to similar operating requirements
- Calculate required and nominal pipe thicknesses based on pressure and temperature criteria
- Select pipes, flanges, elbows, tees, valves, fittings, gaskets, bolts and nuts according to service requirements
- Evaluate joining methods such as welding, threading, flanged joints, grooved joints and proprietary systems
- Establish branch tables and assess reinforcement requirements for pipe-to-pipe connections
- Interpret common piping nomenclature, terminology and specification coding systems
- Develop complete piping class documentation based on technical and regulatory criteria
This course is intended for:
- Graduates or soon-to-graduate engineering students interested in industrial piping systems
- Piping designers and design office personnel involved in specification development
- Mechanical, piping, process and project engineers working with industrial plant systems
- Technicians involved in calculation, selection, fabrication, safety, quality or maintenance activities
- Freelancers and professionals supporting the design, manufacturing or technical documentation of industrial process equipment and systems
Prerequisite
Previous knowledge of piping class specification development is not required to attend this course.
A basic understanding of industrial plants, piping systems, engineering drawings or mechanical design documentation will be helpful for following the technical examples and case studies.
- Intermediate
This is a self-paced online course based on structured technical lessons, study notes, summary videos, conceptual questions and practical case studies.
The methodology follows a practical technical approach, combining engineering theory with specification development exercises, calculation criteria and applied industrial examples. The course does not require scheduled attendance, allowing participants to progress through the material according to their availability.
