Piping Systems
Course Description
This seminar is composed of two sections. The first section discusses the design requirements for process plant piping systems. The second section discusses the maintenance requirements for these systems. In each case, the seminar goes beyond merely repeating the material contained in the governing standards and discusses practical applications and typical procedures. The seminar also contains sample problems that are worked together and written exercises that are completed by the participants.
