Pipe Stress analysis and supporting systems for piping designers
What you'll learn
Eliminate Design Iterations: Proactively design layouts that meet mechanical requirements, directly reducing costly communication loops and eliminating re-work cycles between the Piping Design and Stress Analysis teams.
Translate Code to CAD: Gain the essential knowledge of stress analysis criteria (e.g., thermal flexibility, support span limits) and learn to implement these ASME B31 code rules directly within your 3D modeling environment.
Master Load Vector Generation: Understand precisely how your layout decisions (routing, branch connections, component weight) directly translate into critical load vectors that determine the compliance of the entire system.
Optimize Support System Placement: Select and place piping support systems not just for weight, but to effectively control displacement and manage moment loads, making the system inherently mechanically sound from the initial draft.
Accelerate Deliverable Approval: Structure and prepare piping deliverables (Isometrics, Plan Views) to proactively address the stress engineer's needs, leading to faster review cycles and accelerated project turnover.
Validate Constructability & Compliance: Achieve true engineering synergy by ensuring your designs are simultaneously constructable, cost-efficient, and fully compliant with ASME flexibility and sustained stress limits.
