This course will provide attendees the background required to design, engineer and complete piping assignments. This course will be of interest to people employed in any area that piping is present, be it Refinery, Chemical, Power, Pulp and Paper, Utility etc. It shall introduce engineers, designers and construction personnel to the various procedures involved in the development and engineering of Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P & IDs), Equipment Plot Plans, Piping Arrangements and Fabrication Drawings. This will include pipe sizing, pressure drop calculations, pump and equipment sizing and selection, preparation of equipment specifications and drawings, piping specifications, instrumentation and process control, as well as piping component familiarization including valves and fittings, piping hangers and supports.
Traditionally there has been little formal training in this area and design decisions often have to be made based on practical considerations without formulae or code reinforcement. Completing piping drawings take up the majority of man-hours in the design of a process plant.
