Piping Design & Stress Analysis in Barcelona

This comprehensive 5-day training programme provides engineering professionals with the foundational knowledge and practical tools to understand, design, and evaluate piping systems in accordance with international codes and industry best practices. Focusing on mechanical integrity, stress analysis, and degradation control, the course equips participants to improve the safety, reliability, and maintainability of piping systems in process industries.

Through real-world case studies and hands-on methods, participants will explore the interconnected factors that influence piping performance, from design and materials to operating conditions, corrosion mechanisms, and preventive maintenance.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

• Elevate their comprehension of piping systems' mechanical integrity and interdependence with proper design, operation, condition assessment, and maintenance.
• Acquire practical methods and tools for basic design calculations following industrial codes and best practices related to pressure equipment.
• Understand degradation mechanisms affecting process equipment, methods to identify and predict impact, and measures for prevention and control.
• Apply piping stress analysis principles to identify critical loads and evaluate system reliability.
• Interpret piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), isometrics, and layout considerations.
• Evaluate support systems, expansion loops, and dynamic effects such as vibration and thermal expansion.
