Part 1: Introduction - Overview of Piping
This Webinar was presented on February 27th... View the Recording
Presenter: Jerry Godina
(1-hr. presentation)
This presentation serves as an introductory overview of piping system design. Learn how the entire piping system is affected by the operating conditions, including flow rate, design pressure and temperature. View how internal and external forces impact the design. See what kind of influence the different modes of failure and the applicable codes have on the entire system. Explore an example piping layout and get an overview of the general support classifications. |

Part 2: Preliminary Piping Design - Piping System Components
This Webinar was presented on March 6th... View the Recording
Presenter: David Baker (1-hr. presentation)
In Part 2 of our series on the Overview of Piping Design, we will examine the vital concepts used in developing an initial piping layout. See how the governing design principles including fluid properties, flow rate, and physical laws influence the complete piping system layout. Finally, understand how each of the different piping system components, such as tanks, vessels, valves, and pumps, impact the overall configuration.

Part 3: Preliminary Piping Design - The Total System
This Webinar was presented on March 13th... View the Recording
Presenter: David Baker
(1-hr. presentation)
Continuing our series on the Overview of Piping Design, Part 3 will take a detailed look at the total piping system. Understand the different types of equipment and components that define various types of piping systems. Learn the differences between series piping, parallel piping and branch piping as well as their specialized applications. See how the piping system conditions such as static and dynamic head loss influence the selection and distribution of piping components throughout the entire system. |

Part 4: Basic Concepts of Stress Analysis - Flexibility Analysis
This Webinar was presented on March 20th... View the Recording
Presenter: Jerry Godina (1-hr. presentation)
Part 4 of our continuing series will take an historical perspective of how earlier analysis techniques were developed in the absence of today's computer technology. Learn how earlier techniques have evolved ultimately leading to today's finite element practices. The basic concepts of analysis will be covered, including failure theories, stress intensification factors and the overall purpose of stress analysis.

Part 5: Basic Concepts of Stress Analysis - Design Bases
This Webinar was presented on March 27th... View the Recording
Presenter: Jerry Godina (1-hr. presentation)
In Part 5 of our Webinar series, discover how vibration analysis tools will be used in conjunction with flexibility analysis tools introduced in the last session. Learn about the various design bases which form the foundation of all our analyses, including physical attributes, loading conditions and joint design. We will also discuss how the model is developed, and how vibration affects the piping system.

Part 6: Influences on Pipe Support Design - Rigid Supports
This Webinar was presented on April 3rd... View the Recording
Presenter: Jerry Godina (1-hr. presentation)
In the 6th webinar in our ongoing series, we will begin our review of different pipe support elements, concentrating primarily on rigid supports. We'll take a look at a variety of support elements ranging from stock catalog items to completely customized parts. Learn which factors of the piping stress analysis have an impact on the overall design and cost. Also, see how adjustability can be incorporated into the design to accommodate for on-site discrepancies. |

Part 7: Influences on Pipe Support Design - Spring Supports
This Webinar was presented on April 10th... View the Recording
Presenter: Jerry Godina (1-hr. presentation)
Part 7 of our continuous Piping Design Series will focus on resilient support elements including variable, constant, and big ton springs. We will review the operating conditions that help you to define the ideal pipe support for your application. See how standard pipe support hardware can be used in conjunction with stock spring components to design entire pipe support assemblies. Discover how to modify standard spring elements to fit unusual configurations in a piping system. |

Part 8: Influences on Pipe Support Design - Restraints
Register for April 17th at 10:00 am or 2:00 pm
Presenter: Jerry Godina (1-hr. presentation)
Our conclusive Part 8 of the Piping Design series will concentrate on restraint devices used for transient loading conditions. Explore different types of components and their particular functions, including hydraulic snubbers, mechanical snubbers, and sway struts. Identify which design parameters to consider when selecting the most appropriate restraint device. We'll conclude our overall series with general guidelines focused on standardization and versatility of pipe supports throughout the piping system. |
