CAESAR II Statics

This course is for engineers/analysts who carry out Static stress analysis on piping systems

The class includes a basic introduction to the software (interface, simple data input, editing etc. and then goes on to develop further skills by using CAESAR II software to resolve typical everyday piping problems.

Provides a wide array of features without sacrificing your need for a short learning curve

It also covers design code stresses, output interpretation and creating reports amongst many other subjects.

Delegates should have an appreciation for Mechanical Engineering theory and principles. Qualifications would typically be a Degree or HNC/HND in Mechanical engineering, Chemical Engineering or relevant experience.


ADVANCE PIPE STRESS ANALYSIS

CAESAR II Dynamics is highly regarded for its blend of background theory, use of CAESAR II and engineering application.

This course is based on hands-on solution of example problems in order to illustrate Pipe Stress Analysis using CAESAR software

PRESSURE VESSEL DESIGN

PV Elite

This course is for engineers/analysts who carry out Pressure Vessel Design to satisfy design code requirements.

The class includes a basic introduction to the software (interface, simple data input, editing etc. and then goes on to develop further skills by using PV Elite software to design a number of pressure vessel configurations to various codes.

It also covers other topics which should prove useful for the Pressure Vessel Engineer in addition to output interpretation and the production of deliverables.

Delegates should have an appreciation for Mechanical Engineering theory and principles.
