The integrity of pressure vessels under design and operating conditions is imperative to ensure the safety of workers and the public.

The presentation will cover the following topics:

What is a Pressure Vessel

Types vessel showing some of ours

History of pressure vessel

Failure of vessels

Effects on vessel design

AS1210

Associated Australian standards

ASME

Types of connections

How to specify a PV for a designer or manufacturer

Pressure Vessel Registration

Hazard levels and factors

Design registration/ plant registration, including differences between states

Design verification

Who should attend this webinar?

Pressure Vessels are particularly relevant to the mechanical engineering discipline as well as those practitioners in asset management, pipeline engineering and risk engineering. This presentation will be a valuable introduction for students and graduates to this special 'area of practice', as well as those members Chartered in the Pressure Equipment Design Verification.
