Objectives: This is an introductory course to provide the basic understanding of the fabrication, inspection and testing portions of ASME Section VIII Division 1 for new construction and how they work with API 510 for post construction inspection, repairs and alterations. An important part of achieving these objectives is covering the Alberta Safety Code Act and Pressure Equipment Safety Regulations that ABSA administers in Alberta. The ABSA forms for design registration, completion of construction, data reports, and others will be reviewed. The course also includes an introduction to ASME Sec. II Part A (material standards) and a brief introduction to ASME Section IX - Welding Qualifications. Who Should Attend: Inspectors, engineers, maintenance and QA personnel who work for owner-user companies, inspection companies, fabricators, maintenance service and repair companies, inspection companies and EPC's from petrochemical plants, refineries, power plants, gas/oil pipeline companies, and pulp mills. Optional evening tutorial sessions will be available for CSA W178.2 welding inspector exam candidates (level 1 ASME Section VIII, Division 1 and ASME Section IX exam). Topics: Understanding Codes and Standards - introduction to codes and standards: ASME, API, CSA, ISO, NB - introduction to applicable provincial and territorial jurisdiction requirements: - Alberta Labour, ABSA, BC CAWS, Saskatchewan Labour, Ontario CCR, etc. as applicable - Alberta Safety Codes Act - Alberta Pressure Equipment Safety Regulations (PESR) - scope of CSA B51 Boiler, Pressure Vessel & Pressure Piping Code - owner/user programs - scope of ASME VIII, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code - scope of B31.1 and B31.3 Pressure Piping Codes - scope of API 510 Considerations That Form the Basis for Code Rules - ductile and brittle fracture - elastic collapse - creep and stress rupture - fatigue - stress intensity (concentration) - corrosion and environmental assisted cracking - composition of steels ASME VIII, Division 1 - interpretations and Code Cases - application and limitations of Division 1 ASME VIII, Division 1 and API 510 - responsibilities: - owner-user - manufacturer - authorized inspector - owner's inspector - materials and components - listed, unlisted, unknown materials, and test reports - impact testing - casting efficiency - specifications: ASTM standards and ASME Section II Parts A, B, C - temperature limits - loading determinations and formulas for wall thickness requirements - branch connections and reinforcement - vessel support considerations - non pressure loading - bolting Inspection, Examination and Testing - responsibilities of fabricator - responsibilities of purchaser - responsibilities and duties of the authorized inspector - responsibilities of owner's inspector - extent of required examinations - types of examination - nondestructive testing - leak testing - determination of corrosion rate - determining inspection frequency Documentation - documentation required - marking and identification of pressure vessels Pressure Relief Devices Pressure Vessel Fabrication by Welding - location and types of joints (ASME VIII) - service restrictions - radiographic and ultrasonic examination - weld joint classification system - weld joint efficiencies - welded attachment details - fabrication requirements - special repair weld methods - peening - temper bead welding - buttering Materials for Pressure Vessels - listed materials - deterioration of materials in service - API 571 - fabrication (welding) requirements - preheating - heat treatment ASME VIII, Division 1 - Mandatory and Non-Mandatory Appendices Required Code Documents: All participants must bring the ASME Section VIII, Division 1 and the API 510 Codes to this class. Only Parts U, UG, UW, UCS, UHA, UHT, Appendices 1-4, 6, 8, and 12 are required from ASME Section VIII, Division 1. (The ASME and API Codes can be purchased from CASTI. See below.)

Roy B. Baguley, P. Eng. graduated from the University of Alberta with a Bachelor of Science in Metallurgical Engineering in 1977 and a Master of Engineering in Metallurgical Engineering (Welding) in 1983. He is a registered Professional Engineer in the Province of Alberta, Canada, and has 30 years of domestic and international experience related to metallurgy, corrosion, welding, and nondestructive examination. Roy worked as an equipment operator at a major Canadian pipe mill, and as a metallurgical and NDE technician with a leading metallurgical engineering consulting company. He obtained CGSB Level II NDE certification in the radiographic, ultrasonic, magnetic particle, and liquid penetrant test methods. After graduating in 1977, Roy entered professional life as a metallurgical engineer, performing failure investigations, materials testing, materials selection, NDE technique development, and welding qualifications. In 1981 Roy joined ARAMCO and worked with the Projects Inspection Division on new construction in Saudi Arabia. In 1984 he accepted a contract with the South African Institute of Welding, returning to Canada one year later to work on a variety of domestic and international oil and gas projects. In 1987, Roy formed Metal Engineers International Inc. (MEI) Through MEI, he continues to offer metallurgical, welding, corrosion, and nondestructive testing expertise, mainly to the oil and gas industry. |
