Being able to perform Piping Stress Analysis either using Computer Program such as CAESAR II, or AUTOPIPE, or even to do some manual calculations, requires some understanding of basic knowledge in piping stress analysis such as, what is Piping Stress Analysis? Why do we need to do a stress analysis? What kind of skill or knowledge that we need to know in order to be able to do such a job?

Before we answer those questions, however, there are things that we should have known prior to that, for example, the knowledge about some basics piping stuff, such as piping material, pipe sizes, pipe schedule, pipe fittings, as well as pipe support, which is given in my separate courses.

This course will provide the very basic theory of piping stress analysis and divides into TEN(10) lessons starting with the function and method of stress analysis, followed by the understanding of stress category, Allowable Stress, Wall Thickness Calculation, properties of the pipes, thermal expansion, and many more.
