  • Course Content
  • Enrollment
11 to 15 May 2026

Please fill out the required info below and our Training Coordinator will be in contact soon:

What to expect when attending
The basic theoretical background to pipe flexibility analysis is covered, including compliance with piping codes. The course addresses Static Analysis only. A separate 5-day course is available that addresses Advanced Statics and Dynamic Analysis.

The presentation is based on hands-on solution of example problems to illustrate Pipe Stress Analysis using Aspect Pipe Stress (formerly CAESAR II) software. No previous experience in the use of Aspect Pipe Stress (formerly CAESAR II) is required, but some background in pipe stress analysis is desirable.

A discussion / question / answer format is also employed to maximize retention of course material and theoretical concepts.
Persons attending the training should expect to leave the course with a basic working knowledge of Aspect Pipe Stress (formerly CAESAR II), and pipe flexibility analysis.

Chempute Software will provide training venue, computers, training license, printed training notes, teas/coffees, light breakfasts and lunches, course completion certificate.
Course Content
What topics will be covered from Day 1 to 5:
  • Introduction (interface, units creation, how CAESAR II works.
  • Piping code basics, theory, and development (failure theories, code equations)
  • Data input methods
  • Load based piping design, supporting for deadweight.
  • Expansion stresses and resolving system stress/flexibility issues; Equipment load compliance (incorporating System Re-Design, Structural Steel, Variable Spring Supports, Expansion Joints, Nozzle Flexibilities, Local Stresses,
  • API 610 Pumps, Load Case Set-up)
  • Deliverables including custom reports, output filters, isometric creation
  • Combining models
  • Modelling and analysis of a transmission line (incorporating buried pipe, fatigue, B31.8 code, load case manipulation)
  • Modelling and analysis of jacketed riser (incorporating jacketed pipe and ‘spider’ supports, wave loading, wind loading, modelling using block lists)
  • Modelling and analysis of FRP Piping System (incorporating FRP material set-up, creating new materials, theory of FRP analysis, static-seismic loads)
  • Analysis documentation and workshop* (incorporating model generation, system evaluation and re-design in a ‘do-it-yourself’ session)
Enrollment
  • Complete the registration form and e-mail through to: lkylander@chempute.com
  • Acknowledgement will be e-mailed back to you.
  • Final confirmation of your booking and all details of the course will be e-mailed to you only on receipt of full payment for the course.

Upcoming Training - Full Schedule


We are excited to launch a new course:

ASME Boiler Pressure Vessel Code - Section VIII Division 1 & 2

This course offers foundational training for Pressure Vessel Engineers and Designers, particularly in the oil, gas, and mining industries. It focuses on the ASME Boiler Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC), specifically Section VIII Divisions 1 & 2, essential for compliance in pressure vessel design. The training covers design calculations, navigating the Code’s sections, and annexes.

Division 1 lecture cover welding and metallurgical requirements, while Division 2 lectures focus on “Design by Rules”. The course includes practical examples, Excel spreadsheets for calculations, and hands-on practice. Participants will work through real-world examples and learn to interpret results and address design deficiencies.
