Course details

This course will cover basic and advanced topics of Pressure Vessel Engineering Design and Fabrication requirement to provide a robust understanding of the background theory behind technical requirements of Pressure Vessel codes and standards. This will serve as a refresher course on core and advanced topics of Pressure Vessel Engineering to understand technical background of design and analysis as per codes & standards.

This course covers all important aspects of Pressure Vessel Design, Fabrication and testing, which comprises of

• Design, Analysis and Engineering requirement for Pressure Vessel

• Metallurgy and Material Selection while designing Pressure vessel

• Fabrication prerequisite while Pressure Vessel engineering

• Heat Treatment requirement for Pressure Vessel

• Testing & Inspection essentials for Pressure Vessel Design

All of above topics are covered in different modules of this course hence we encourage you to enroll all modules to learn all major and critical areas of Pressure vessel engineering.

Classifications of Static Equipment Engineering is a specialized discipline of Mechanical Engineering which covers the design of static equipments like Pressure vessels (Process Columns, Drums, Reactors, Separators, Drain vessel), Heat exchangers (Shell and Tube, Plate and Frame, Plate and Shell, Air Coolers), Atmospheric Tanks (Low pressure and LPG Tanks), Flare Stack in chemical, petrochemical, or hydrocarbon facilities. We have different courses to cover above listed equipment & do participate in all courses.

Course suitable for

Key topics covered

This module talks about fabrication requirement as per ASME Code. Production & Fabrication is one of most important aspect of Pressure vessel Engineering and through understanding of fabrication is essential for Design Engineering because their drawing will get converted into actual product. Following topics are covered in this module

1. Dishend Fabrication

2. Plate Rolling

3. Pressure vessel fabrication tolerance requirement

4. Welding and weld joints

5. Impact testing requirements

6. Platform and ladders

Do enroll other module to learn more on fundamentals of material requirement while designing pressure vessel and understand ASME Code that are critical for a static equipment engineer.

Questions and Answers

A: Governing principle: ASME Section VIII assigns joint efficiency based on the stress direction relative to the weld. In this shell, hoop stress controls thickness and is perpendicular to the longitudinal weld, so that weld’s efficiency applies even if circumferential seams have less RT. Option A traps engineers who know spot RT reduces efficiency but forget stress orientation.

A: Governing principle: PWHT soak time scales with thickness at the weld, not shell diameter or heat-up rate. Here 50 mm is about 2 inches, giving roughly two hours, and planning often trims that to 1.5 hours excluding ramp time. Option C catches people who import heat exchanger stress relief heuristics into pressure vessels.

A: Governing principle: Fabrication must follow a single controlled document set to avoid rework and code impact. Orientation affects local stresses, weld details, and sometimes RT access, so alignment is needed before cutting shell openings. Option D attracts engineers focused on piping loads while missing fabrication sequencing risk.

A: Governing principle: Mill tolerance applies to nominal thickness to ensure minimum required thickness after tolerance and corrosion. Here (12 + 3) / (1 − 0.125) gives about 17.1 mm, so 18 mm is the defensible nominal. Option B traps those who add tolerance linearly instead of dividing by remaining metal.
