Why enroll

The participants will get

1. a theoretical background behind B31.3 requirements which helps a piping engineer understand the strengths, weaknesses, and applicability of the code requirements.

2. an understanding of how a Pipe stress Program operates.

3. an insight into the newly introduced B31J.

4. an understanding of how to develop a piping material specification on the basis of B31.3

5. an understanding of the technically challenging chapter on High-pressure piping.

6. the idea of bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and code requirements.

Good walk-through of B31.3 without fluff; the Appendix D flexibility calc where he steps through SIFs and thermal expansion numbers stuck, especially the hand-check vs CAESAR II note. Mostly practical for client work, though I wasn't sold on the pass over 302.3.5 allowable stresses—wished there was one more worked example tied to plant mods.

The modular chunks fit between meetings, so I could dip in without blocking a half-day. The walk-through of para 302.3 using Table A-1 allowable stresses, then the branch reinforcement calc in Chapter II, stuck. it's framed like a PR review: assumptions, checks, failure modes, and how they'd change decisions in prod or infra. I wasn't sold on the light treatment of flexibility analysis and test choices in 345, but I've got a cleaner checklist for the next spec review.

This course poked at assumptions I had about the ASME B31.3 framework—forcing me to reconcile the spec with how we actually run infra. The worked example in Section 302.3 on allowable stress with temperature derating stuck; walking the numbers felt like reviewing a prod change before merge. The 341/345 testing flow maps cleanly to CI gates and obs checks, though I wasn't sold on how lightly change churn (think k8s rollouts) was treated. I've caught myself reading other engineers’ calcs like PRs in a repo, annotating assumptions instead of skimming.

Course details

The online instructor-led course on A Full Overview of ASME B31.3 - Fundamentals & Application is designed to provide participants with a deep understanding of certain parts of the ASME B31.3 Code, which governs the design, materials, construction, and testing of piping systems in the chemical, petroleum, and process industries. This course will help participants comprehend the core principles of ASME B31.3 and apply them effectively in the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of process piping systems. By the end of the course, participants will be able to interpret the described ASME B31.3 requirements confidently and apply them to ensure the safety, reliability, and compliance of piping systems in their respective industries.

The course is aimed at equipping engineers involved in stress analysis of piping and pressure vessel systems with the necessary theoretical minimum required to understand the applications of solid mechanics in piping and pressure vessel codes and standards. The following professionals will benefit from the course:

Piping Engineers (Stress and Layout)
University students who want to take up a career in piping engineering and want to learn about the most widely used Industrial standard on process piping.
Experienced Piping engineers who want to understand the background of code rules and requirements of B31.3
