Introduction
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date knowledge of detailed engineering drawings, codes, and standards. It covers the interpretation of drawings in a multi-discipline environment such as plant layout, mechanical, structural, instrumentation and piping (P&ID); the mechanical engineering drawings from design information; and the interpretation of codes, standards, and specifications in engineering drawings. During the course, participants will be able to prepare hand sketches of a number of mechanical components; participate in a series of blueprint reading exercises; and read, interpret and extract information from mechanical & piping arrangement drawings and piping and instrumentation drawings (P&ID). Further, the course will also discuss the B31.1 and B31.3 codes; level, flow, pressure and temperature variables; the control valves, relief valves and closed control loops; and the drawing representation and interpretation.
Objectives
- Interpret drawings in a multi-discipline environment such as plant layout, mechanical, structural, instrumentation and piping (P&ID)
- Produce mechanical engineering drawings from design information
- Interpret codes, standards and specifications and apply them in engineering drawings
- Prepare hand sketches of a number of mechanical components and participate in a series of blueprint reading exercises
- Read, interpret and extract information from mechanical & piping arrangement drawings and piping & instrumentation drawings (P&ID)
Upon the successful completion of this course, each participant will be able to:-
Training Methodology
This is a highly interactive training course with opportunities to advance your opinions and ideas. Participation is encouraged in a supportive environment. To ensure the concepts introduced during the program are understood, they will be reinforced through a mix of learning methods, including lecture-style presentations, open discussion, case studies, simulations, and group work.
Who Should Attend?
This course covers systematic techniques on P&ID reading, interpretation and development of detailed engineering drawings, codes and standards for managers, engineers, supervisors and other technical staff. Further, the course is essential for designers and draftspersons in the plant design field as well as for piping fabricators and suppliers.
