: Inspection practices for piping system components like valves and fittings.
: Material verification programs for alloy piping systems (PMI). ASME Section V : Nondestructive Examination (NDE) methods.
Course materials often categorize content into and practical calculations . You must be able to perform these calculations in both US Customary and SI units:
: Calculating test pressures and understanding safety requirements.
: Welding and Brazing Qualifications (WPS, PQR, and WPQ). ASME B31.3 : Process Piping design and construction rules. ASME B16.5 : Pipe flanges and flanged fittings. 2. Critical Knowledge Areas & Calculations
: The primary code covering inspection, repair, and alteration.
: Recalculating the pressure rating of an existing piping system based on current thickness.
: Damage mechanisms affecting fixed equipment (focusing on specific sections like CUI, sulfidation, and microbiologically influenced corrosion).
Your study materials should center on the API Publications Effectivity Sheet , which lists the specific editions required for the current exam cycle. Key documents include:
: Using ASME B16.5 tables to find pressure-temperature ratings and minimum wall thicknesses. API 570 - Piping Inspector - American Petroleum Institute
