COURSE OVERVIEW ME0045-3D

ASME VIII Pressure Vessel Design, Fabrication & Testing

Course TitleASME VIII Pressure Vessel Design,Fabrication & Testing

Course D ate/VenueSeptember 22-24, 2019/Boardroom 3,Elite Byblos Hotel Al Barsha, SheikhZayed Road, Dubai, UAE

Course ReferenceME0045-3D

Course Duration/CreditsThree days/1.8 CEUs/18 PDHs

Course DescriptionThis hands-on, highly-interactive course includes variouspractical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will beapplied using our state-of-the-art simulators.

The course is designed to provide delegates with a detailedand up-to-date overview of ASME VIII pressure vessel design,fabrication and testing. The course will help the participants touse the fabrication rules for various materials and fabricationmethods including forging, casting and welding anddistinguish material properties and requirements for lowtemperature and high temperature applications.

Participants will determine how pressure vessels arefabricated, mainly with regard to welding. Further, they will beable to employ the post weld heat treatment requirements ofUCS 56 and practice the concept of temper bead welding asan in-service alternative to post weld heat treatment.

The course will further discuss the concept of the “The ASMEStamp”, where the national board fits into the ASME Schemeand where other standards such as API 510 are used.Participants will gain knowledge on the non-destructivemethods and will be able to implement the proper proceduresof hydrostatic and pneumatic tests and distinguish what it isdesigned to achieve. The course also covers the propermanagement of pressure vessel nameplates, stamping,documentation requirements, manufacturer’s data report anddata book compilation.

Course ObjectivesUpon the successful completion of this course, each participant will be able to:-

Apply the design rules of ASME VIII including rules governing shell thickness, headthickness, nozzles loadings, MAWP and NDT/NDE

Use the fabrication rules for various materials and fabrication methods includingforging, casting and welding

Distinguish material properties and requirements for low temperature and hightemperature applications

Determine how pressure vessels are fabricated, mainly with regard to welding

Employ the post weld heat treatment requirements of UCS 56 and practice theconcept of Temper Bead Welding as an in-service alternative to post weld heattreatment

Identify the concept of “The ASME Stamp” and discuss how to become anaccredited fabricator; what it means to the Fabricator and what it means to thePurchaser

Discuss where the National Board fits into the ASME Scheme and where otherstandards such as API 510 are used

Gain an in-depth knowledge on the Non-Destructive Testing methods, what eachmethod can detect and what it cannot detect and how to apply “AcceptanceCriteria” from various Codes

Implement the proper procedures of Hydrostatic and Pneumatic tests anddistinguish what it is designed to achieve

Manage Pressure Vessel nameplates, stamping, documentation requirements,Manufacturer’s Data Report and Data Book compilation

Exclusive Smart Training Kit - H-STK®

Participants of this course will receive the exclusive “HawardSmart Training Kit” (H-STK®). The H-STK® consists of acomprehensive set of technical content which includeselectronic version of the course materials, sample video clipsof the instructor’s actual lectures & practical sessions duringthe course conveniently saved in a Tablet PC.

Who Should AttendThis course provides an overview of all significant aspects and considerations of ASMEVIII pressure vessel for those who are involved in the design, fabrication and testing ofpressure vessels and for engineers who want to know more or move to this veryinteresting engineering area. Further, engineers involved in maintenance, repair andflaw evaluation of pressure vessels will also have a need for this course.
