Thanks everyone! We want to stick with low-tech methods and just get a general feel for the system. A 3D model would be great but is more than we require, and the point cloud and laser level systems are a bit overkill for our needs at the moment. I have some staff and some time available to...
Myself and a couple of staff have to make a flow diagram of an existing piping system (low pressure water, nothing ASME etc). It is a rather large and convoluted system as it has been tapped into and changed a number of times over the years and spreads through out an area of approximately 120...
CASTI only has their corrosion series currently listed for sale. I've tried every website and used book forum I'm aware of. Unless I've made a big mistake a simple google search is not turning up this book. That's why I posted here.
Thanks ironic but am I missing something? When I looked at google before it says there is no ebook available, if you click the Amazon or Chapters (or all sellers) link they also state that no books are available and if you use the "find in a library" link the closest library to me is 206 miles...
I'm with Curtis. I've used both CII and AutoPIPE. I think I only did one B31.1 project on CII and the rest were B31.3, all were static analysis. I used the forces provided from CII to calculate nozzle and shell loads on tanks etc in a separate program. On AutoPIPE I've ran B31.1, B31.3 and one...
Panther140, I completely agree that men should be encouraged to go into nursing and other female dominated professions. I find it distressing that there are no men in daycares, what message does this send to children? That only women are caring individuals? Although I believe that the issue of...
Good morning,
I'm looking over some old calculations here and I see that Article 4-9 "Stresses in Perforated Flat Plates" of 2004 ASME Section VIII Div 2 was used, I don't have a copy of this version on hand. I've looked in 2007 and 2013 codes and this Article doesn't seem to be there. Does...
JohnRBaker: Thanks for the information. I had looked up the statistics on engineers in the government the other day because my gut said that engineers were under-represented in politics. I guess I was right about it but just wrong about which country!
I'm not sure if the numbers are a direct...
This is an interesting topic. One thing I have pondered frequently is the number of films, and some literature, where the crazy person is an engineer. For instance:
Saw
Law Abiding Citizen
Norman Osborn (Green Goblin)
Also, Stephen King's "The Stand" said that engineers and scientists were more...
I'm not sure if you are a member of any organization but if you are you could look at what they offer. For instance, one company I worked for was a full member of IEEE and I seem to recall that they had some kind of computer training module on heat transfer.
I'm a member of ASME, with the...
