This course trains participants to comply with the requirements of ASME B31.1 Power Piping Code. This course specifically focuses on requirements from fabrication and examination to maintenance, including materials and welding qualifications – all vital elements of the power, industrial and institutional plant lifecycle.
The key objective of this course is to examine how various stakeholders employ the B31.1 Code requirements to effectively construct and maintain power piping systems, prevent piping system failures, and ensure a higher degree of system reliability.
By participating in this course, you will learn how to successfully:
- 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
Who should attend?
- Engineers within the piping construction and maintenance field
