This introductory course describes the use of alternative rules for the design and fabrication of pressure vessels given in ASME BPV Code, Section VIII, Division 2.
This course offers a deep insight into the benefits of applying these alternative rules. The course presents a brief history and background for these rules and introduces the new Class 1 and Class 2 vessel types by explaining their differences regarding their design and construction. Participants are introduced to the materials, design, fabrication, toughness, examination, inspection, testing and certification requirements with a detailed discussion making these concepts easier to grasp.
The course provides a high-level overview of the Code that prepares participants for the more advanced courses on topics such as design by rule, design by analysis, fatigue analysis, fracture mechanics and fitness-for-service leading to a broader understanding and mastery of these concepts.
By participating in this course, you will learn how to successfully:
- Explain how the requirements of Divisions 1 and 2 of Section VIII compare
- Explain the theories of failure and design margins of various codes
- Identify the general requirements of the new Division 2
- Describe design rules and stress analysis methods
- Explain fatigue analysis
- Identify materials and fabrication requirements
- Identify NDE requirements, pressure testing, and pressure relief requirements
