Supporting and Load Conditions for Piping Systems
Why take this course?
This self-paced engineering course offers a comprehensive introduction to support types and load conditions in process piping systems. Through a series of video lectures, interactive quizzes, and practical examples, you'll explore common piping supports, the effects of stiffness, gaps, and friction, as well as the use of spring supports and steel structures. The course also covers process conditions, imposed displacements, occasional loads, and best practices for supporting a simple piping system. Upon completion, participants receive a certificate with PDH credits.
