Descrição
Descrição:
This course provides guidance on the preparation and implementation of a risk-based inspection plan. Flaws that are identified during inspection plan implementation are then evaluated, when appropriate, using the procedures provided in the API 579-1/ASME FFS-1, Fitness for Service. If it is determined that repairs are required, guidance on repair procedures is provided in ASME PCC-2, Repair of Pressure Equipment and Piping. PCC3 provides recognised and generally accepted good practices that may be used in conjunction with Post-Construction Codes, such as API 510, API 570, and NB-23. PCC3 is based on API 580, Risk-Based Inspection. By agreement with the American Petroleum Institute, this Standard is closely aligned with the RBI process in API 580, which is oriented toward the hydrocarbon and chemical process industries. In the standards’ development process that led to the publication of this Standard, numerous changes, additions, and improvements to the text of API 580 were made, many of which are intended to generalise the RBI process to enhance applicability to a broader spectrum of industries. ASME formed an Ad Hoc Task Group on Post Construction in 1993 in response to an identified need for recognised and generally accepted engineering standards for the inspection and maintenance of pressure equipment after it has been placed in service. At the recommendation of this Task Group, the Board on Pressure Technology Codes and Standards (BPTCS) formed the Post Construction Committee (PCC) 1995.
