Why take this course?

This self-paced course covers ASME BPVC VIII-1 design rules for pressure vessels under internal pressure, including cylindrical shells, spherical shells, formed ends, and conical sections. Gain a solid understanding of the theoretical foundations and practical applications of these design principles. The course features video lectures, quizzes, and offers a certificate with PDH credits for professional development.

What you'll learn

After completing this course, you...
• Are comfortable in calculating the design wall thickness for cylindrical shells,
• Know when the thick-wall formula should be used and can apply it,
• Are familiar with the methods for calculating the wall thickness in spherical shells and formed heads,
• Have learnt how to calculate the wall thickness for clynidrical transitions.

About the course

This Self-Paced training course focuses on the ASME BPVC VIII-1 design rules pressure vessels under internal pressure. The ASME VIII-1 design rules for cylindrical shells, spherical shells, formed ends, and conical sections in a pressure vessel under internal pressure are explained. Participants will learn about the theoretical foundations of these design rules and practical applications of these design principles in pressure vessel design.

Key topics include:
- Cylindrical shells under internal pressure conform ASME VIII-1
- Spherical shells and Formed ends as per ASME VIII-1
- Cones and conical sections subjected to internal pressure

Through clear explanations and real-world examples, this online training course prepares engineers to design and evaluate components for pressure vessels conform ASME VIII-1.
