A Piping system consists of a combination of pipes, pipe components, flanges, gasket, bolts, valves, which they are interconnecting to form a piping system, while pipe support will make the piping system a complete system which can deliver the fluid from point A to point B.
In this course, we will be learning about pipe and its component starting with the lesson about pipe, followed by pipe components, pipe flanges and then closing with the bolts and gaskets.
By definition, Pipe is a tube with round cross section with having Outside Diameter, pipe wall thickness, and subsequently Inside Diameter, as we can see from the picture below using pipe size of 6 inches as an example.
The pipe size, wall thickness, pipe weight/masses, will be conforming to the dimensional requirements of:
- ASME B36.10 – 2022: Welded and Seamless Wrought Steel Pipe
- ASME B36.19 – 2022: Welded and Seamless Wrought Stainless Steel Pipe
The course we will be delivered into 5 lessons:
Pipe support is one of the important and an integral part in the piping system which have the main job to control the weight effect of the piping system and make sure that the piping system will be properly supported for the entire its operation at any condition in order to avoid a mechanical failure of the metal due to excessive stress in pipe supporting elements.
Pipe Support can be categorized into two main groups, namely: 1) Standard Pipe Support, and 2) Special Pipe Support.
So, what is Standard Pipe Support? Standard pipe support is basically the type of pipe support which has been standardized for specific used based on the pipe sizes, acting vertical and horizontal load, and therefore can be used at several pipe support locations. On the other hand, Special Pipe Support is the type of pipe support which need to be designed for specific loads and for specific pipe support location.
In this course we will be learning about the type of standard pipe support normally used for Oil and Gas Application and will also be showing some of example for specific project. Before that, we will discuss about the codes and standards available for the pipe support, the terminology, the functions and the allowable span calculation.

#Piping Engineering Course Series, #Piping Material Course
Piping has played a major role in our life since ages ago. History showed us that the people from Indus Valley had been used piping system to deliver water into their houses. In Oil and Gas, piping is widely used to distribute oil from the wells into the manifold and further to the processing facilities before sending to customer for their daily use.
Crucially and importantly, piping plays major role in protecting life and property as fire protection piping networks in residential, commercial, industrial, and other buildings. If to the bodies they carry blood, then to modern civilization, the piping system carry life blood.
In this course, we will be learning about the piping material which normally used at Oil and Gas facilities.
The piping material can be categorized into two big group: 1) Metallic Pipe, and 2) Non-Metallic Pipe. Each of them can be further grouped as follows:
