EN 13480: Flexibility Assessment and Pipe Supporting
Why take this course?
Learn piping flexibility analysis according to EN 13480. This self-paced course covers stress limits, intensification factors, load cases, and support design, including springs and buried piping. Master dynamic load considerations for compliance. Includes video lectures, quizzes, and a certificate with PDH credits.
About the course
This course explains how to perform a piping flexibility study conform EN 13480. It will be shown what are the stress limits, stress intensification factors, and the required load cases. You will also learn about the design of supports, including types of supports like spring supports, considerations for buried piping, and dynamic load aspects to ensure the system conforms to EN 13480.
