Based on some of his students
most frequently asked questions, Antaki emphasizes the
practical applications of this ASME recommended practice.
With this book readers will
understand and apply API 579 in their daily work.
The material is based on
the author’s course and presented in clear concise manor.
The book demonstrates how
the disciplines of stress analysis, materials engineering,
and nondestructive inspection interact and apply to
fitness-for-service assessment.
These assessment methods
apply to pressure vessels, piping, and tanks that are in
service.
This makes it the perfect
companion book for Ellenberger’s, Pressure Vessels: ASME
Code Simplified as well as Ellenberger’s Piping Systems
and Pipeline: ASME B31 Code Simplified.
This handy
volume annotates and explains ASME code and API inspection
and fitness-for-service practices. Presented in a clear,
precise manner, this comprehensive guide meticulously
explains how stress analysis, materials, engineering, and
nondestructive inspection affect fitness-for-service.
The tools needed to:
-
Inspect
and categorize damage, degradation, and corrosion
mechanisms
-
Evaluate
wall thinning, pitting, cracking, fatigue, mechanical
damage, high-temperature corrosion, and creep
-
Develop and
implement programs for corrective and predictive
maintenance of tanks, vessels, piping, and pipelines
-
Select the
right repair technique and avoid pitfalls in repair
welding and joining
