About the course

Designing pressure vessel components to withstand external pressure is crucial for ensuring structural integrity under buckling and compression loads. This Self-Paced training course delves into the ASME BPVC VIII-1 design rules for components subjected to external pressure. The ASME VIII-1 design rules for both thin-walled and thick-walled shells, together with buckling evaluations, and the role of stiffener rings is covered.

Key topics include:
- Fundamentals of buckling for pressure vessels
- Evaluating cylindrical and thin-walled shells under external pressure conform ASME VIII-1
- Buckling critical length and compressive stress allowables conform ASME VIII-1
- Stiffener rings design as per ASME VIII-1: purpose, design, and implementation
- Vessel heads and their behavior under external pressure

With practical examples, illustrations, and clear guidance, participants will learn how to pressure vessel components can be designed conform ASME VIII-1 for external pressure loading.
