About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT)

The 5 half-day Piping Stress Engineering Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) course will systematically expose participants to:

1. The theory and practice of piping stress engineering, with special reference to ASME B 31.1 and ASME B 31.3 Standards.
2. The basic principles and theories of stress and strain and piping stress engineering, through a series of lessons, case study presentations, in-class examples, multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and mandatory exercises.
3. Principal stresses and shear stresses which form the backbone of stress analysis of a material. Expressions for these quantities will be derived using vector algebra from fundamentals.
4. Thermal stress-range, sustained and occasional stresses, code stress equations, allowable stresses, how to increase flexibility of a piping system, cold spring.
5. The historical development of computational techniques from hand calculations in the 1950s to the present-day software.
