Pipework analysis
Piping systems generally consist of pressure-retaining parts such as pipes, fittings, bends, expansion joints, shut-off devices and so on. These must be designed to the applicable codes, for example:
- EN 13480
- ASME B31.1
- ASME B31.3
- AD 2000
- EN 13445
The loads that can be taken into account include:
- internal pressure
- thermal loads
- snow loads
- wind loads
- earthquake
Both static and dynamic strength verifications can be provided. We offer:
- Rohr2 analyses
- finite element analysis of special geometries
- calculation of support loads
- flange calculations
- verification of bolted joints
- sizing of steel components, supports and hangers (see also steel structures)
Documentation is provided either as a brief record or, if preferred, as a detailed report suitable for review that can be submitted to notified bodies — including as part of our all-inclusive package.
