Mechanical Maintenance Techniques: Piping and Pipe Connections
This unit develops an understanding of the function, operation and routine maintenance requirements associated with piping and pipe connections. It is recommended that An Introduction to Mechanical Maintenance: Distribution Systems is completed before undertaking this unit and that Mechanical Maintenance Practice: Piping and Pipe Connections is completed in conjunction with this Unit.
Learning Objectives :
Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
- Outline the function and operation of piping and pipe connections.
- Outline typical signs of fault, damage, wear and corrosion in piping and pipe connections.
- Describe typical routine maintenance requirements of piping and pipe connections.
- Equipment – piping and pipe connections.
- Routine maintenance techniques for piping and pipe connections.
- Technical information and guidelines.
Teaching methods :
- The course will be delivered by means of classroom lectures and practical workshop exercices.
- Written questions could be supported by oral questions using equipment in the workshop – for example, identifying and naming faults or damage on a piece of equipment and/or describe the sequence of dismantling a piece of equipment.
- Assessments can also be combined with other units where relevant, for example, Mechanical Maintenance Practice: Piping and Pipe Connections.
