MDESIGN Seminar
Strength design
of pressure vessels
This seminar offers the opportunity to significantly improve the safety and efficiency of pressure vessels
and equipment while maximizing their service life.
You will learn about the differences between the relevant norms, standards and
guidelines and their application-specific selection.
You will then recognize what needs to be considered for future designs and
future designs and constructions.
These topics await you...
This seminar will teach you the strength design of pressurized
of pressurized equipment on the basis of the European Pressure Equipment Directive.
You will learn about the differences between the relevant norms, standards, directives
and laws as well as their application-specific selection.
The structure and application of the AD 2000 regulations will be illustrated using
case studies for selected elements.
