Piping Engineering

In today’s fast-growing industrial world, Piping Engineering plays a vital role in designing safe and efficient fluid transport systems for oil & gas, power plants, petrochemical units, and more. While textbooks teach theory, real success comes from practical, hands-on training—and that’s exactly what we deliver.

Module 1: Introduction to Piping Engineering

• Role of a piping engineer in industries

• Overview of oil & gas, petrochemical, power plants

• Process flow diagrams (PFD) and piping & instrumentation diagrams (P&ID)

• Industry standards: ASME, ASTM, ANSI, API

 Module 2: Pipe Components & Materials

• Types of pipes and their applications

• Fittings: elbows, tees, reducers, caps

• Valves: gate, globe, check, ball, control valves

• Gaskets, flanges, bolts, fasteners

• Material specifications and selection (CS, SS, AS)

 Module 3: Piping Design & Layout

• Plant layout and equipment orientation

• Pipe routing techniques

• Nozzle orientation and equipment connectivity

• Piping study models and GA drawings

• Piping layout best practices

 Module 4: Pipe Support & Stress Analysis

• Types of supports: hangers, shoes, clamps, guides

• Support span calculations

• Basics of thermal expansion and flexibility

• Introduction to pipe stress analysis (using Caesar II or equivalent)

 Module 5: Isometric & Piping Drawings

• Isometric drawing creation

• Bill of materials (BOM) generation

• Pipe spool drawings and shop drawings

• Checking and error rectification of isometrics

 Module 6: 3D Modeling with AVEVA / PDMS / E3D (Optional Add-on)

• Equipment modeling

• Pipe routing in 3D

• Clash checking and report generation

• Extraction of 2D drawings from 3D model

 Module 7: Codes, Standards, and Safety

• ASME B31.3 and other piping codes

• Pipe thickness calculations

• Pressure rating and testing

• Safety practices in piping design

Module 8: Project Work & Real-World Applications

• Industrial project case study

• Hands-on drawing and modeling assignments

• Coordination with other departments (civil, mechanical, instrumentation)

• Final project review and feedback

Conclusion:

If you’re looking to build a solid career in piping design, don’t settle for theory alone. Choose a course that gives you practical knowledge, software skills, and industry-ready confidence—just like Kagira’s proven training method.
