What you'll learn


FRP systems are designed based on Performance Based System Design, which means the performance of the piping products has to be proven. FRP failure theory forms the basis for the allowable stress envelope and it dictates the qualification program for a piping product to lead to a product-specific stress envelope.

In this on-demand course participants will learn in detail about:

  • the failure criteria for GRP piping and how these relate to material properties,

  • the setup of a material qualification program for FRP piping,

  • understand associated concepts like UEWS, regression testing, and the 1000 hr survival test,

  • how to avoid typical failures with FRP including multiple cases from the field,

  • the causes of longitudinal and circumferential cracks,

  • understand joint strength and how joints can fail.
