Learning Outcomes

This course covers the key areas of assessing the design of the internals through to their eventual installation and covers the topics from a practical viewpoint such as can be obtained only by hands-on involvement. Experience has shown that relatively small mal-practices, either in the design or installation, can have serious economic consequences far beyond that which could be anticipated. Experience has also shown that whilst procedures may well be in place to ensure efficient verification of the installation of internals, personnel often do not have the appropriate knowledge with which to perform the job they are required to undertake. The course will address these issues and should enable engineers to make a positive and definable economic contribution to their company profits with a minimum of delay.
