Learn everything you need to know about pipe stress analysis using Bentley AutoPIPE software - 2022

What you'll learn: 

Basics of pipe stress analysis

Types of loads, stresses and loads combinations on piping systems as per ASME code

ASME Code requirements for pipe stress analysis

Types of piping supports [Rigid supports, Variable supports, Hangers...etc]

How to use Autopipe software to create any piping 3D Model

How to add and define different piping fittings such as bends, Tees, Flanges, Valves, Expansion bellows...etc

How to model pumps & vessels nozzles in Autopope software with different techniques

How to interpret the stress analysis output and to optimize supports design

How to compare system stresses and deformations with the code allowable limits

Requirements:

No experience needed, you will learn everything you need to know

Description:

This course is perfect for any engineer interested to start a career in pipe stress analysis but overwhelmed by many unorganized information and doesn't know from where to start.

This course is designed to guide you through pipe stress analysis process starting from scratch till being able to understand piping isometric drawings, creating a full 3D analysis model, choosing supports types & locations, checking code requirements and finalizing the design drawings/report.

This course consists of 3 sections which are as following :-

Section One :-

In this section, you will learn the very basics of the pipe stress analysis including when & why do we have to carry out pipe stress analysis, and the main concepts such as

- Loads & stresses on the system

- Loads combinations

- ASME Code compliance

- Supports optimization.

- Pipe stress analysis workflow

Once you are familiar with the pipe stress analysis workflow, you will be ready for the following section

Section Two :-

In this section you will learn how to create a new model from scratch and how to model many components such as pipe bends, tees, valves, expansion bellows, pumps and basically any kind of fitting might be in your system.

During modeling you will learn the following

- How to model pumps nozzle using different ways

- How to model surge vessels using different ways

- How to add rigid and flexible supports and how to carry out the springs design.

And many other modelling modifications techniques such as stretching, mirroring, adding segments...etc.

Once the 3D modeling is finalized, you will be ready for the following section

Section Three :-

In the third section, you will start investigating the output results of the analysis including the system deformations, stresses, pump nozzle loads, supports optimization, and we will learn how to understand and asses the system behavior and how to fix any failing segments of the system.

you will also learn some valuable techniques for pipe rerouting such as expansion loops.

Bonus Resources :- 

By the end of the course, and as bonus resource, you will receive an Autopipe model file which we have used during our course, this will give you a chance to train and enhance your modeling skills.In addition to that, you will receive a soft copy of ASME code as well as AutoPIPE software guide book.Who this course is for:Engineers who want to learn pipe stress analysis basics for beginners and intermediate levelEngineers who want to learn 3D piping modeling on Autopipe softwareBeginner pipe stress analysts who want to enhance their knowledge and modeling skillsEngineers into process piping fieldEngineers into infrastructure water fieldEngineers into Petroleum or Oil & Gas field
