About This Course

ASME’s B31.1 Code on Power Piping is widely adopted by jurisdictions worldwide and applicable to various power plants, despite the energy source, including traditional hydrocarbon service or alternate sources such as solar and geothermal. Further it also specifies engineering requirements deemed necessary throughout the entire lifecycle at a power plant including safe and effective power piping design, construction, operation, and maintenance.

As a power piping engineering professional at various power plants, your success is predicated on a comprehensive understanding of power piping systems before, during, and after installation. This end-to-end learning path covers design & failures, materials, fabrication, examination, and testing—as well as thorough understanding of the ASME B31.1 code requirements and background. Safe and proper application of the B31.1 Code and insight into industry best practices from this learning path will help piping engineers to not only comply with regulations but succeed in achieving the operational, reliability, regulatory, cost, and safety goals of their organization. This official ASME learning path is designed to provide attendees with the key considerations, skills, and competencies to excel as a power piping engineering professional.

Learning Objectives

Discover the principal failure modes of piping components and where to look for them.
Recognize the difference between pressure component design and structural design.
Investigate the importance of piping flexibility.
Discuss how to develop stress intensification factors.
Recognize how to qualify nonstandard fittings and joints.
Identify materials selection and limitations, fabrication rules and their bases
Explain welding qualification requirements, inspection, examination, and testing requirements
Identify the Code requirements for power piping maintenance
