Covering all aspects of ASME BPV Code, Section XI, this course highlights repair, replacement, modification, and maintenance activities, pressure testing, and the relationship between the Code and regulatory and enforcement requirements for in-service inspection of nuclear power plant components. It addresses many controversial issues facing the nuclear industry and presents a broad spectrum of opinions regarding practical application of Code requirements. After taking this course, participants gain specific insight into how effective use of Section XI can significantly reduce plant operating costs.
 
This on-demand course features recordings of Live Virtual Classroom sessions taught by ASME’s expert Instructor. Course material includes published ASME Interpretations that explain how Code requirements can be applied to problems that have confronted other companies. This video-based course also highlights significant changes in the Code requirements in the last ten to fifteen years.
 
By participating in this course, you will learn how to successfully:

  • Explain in-service inspection requirements for Class 1, 2, and 3 systems, components, and supports, and steel and concrete containment vessels
  • Describe requirements for qualification of nondestructive examination personnel and performance of nondestructive examination
  • Explain basic requirements for flaw evaluation and acceptance
  • Identify Section XI requirements for repair, replacement, modification, maintenance activities, and pressure testing
  • Explain how to use recent revisions to Section XI to your advantage
  • Describe the relationship of 10CFR50.55a and NRC Regulatory Guides, Bulletins, Generic Letters, and Regulatory Issue Summaries to in-service inspection, nondestructive examination, repair, replacement, and modification

Who should attend:
The course is designed to provide an introduction to Section XI for people who are not at all familiar with it, as well as to provide, for the experienced Section XI user, an entirely new understanding of some of the many confusing and controversial parts of Section XI. This includes utility operating personnel responsible for in-service inspection, nondestructive examination, evaluation, repair, replacement, and modification of nuclear power plants, and for personnel responsible for assessment or third-party inspection, regulation or enforcement. While experience with Section XI or other ASME Codes or Standards is not required, participants should have a strong technical background or hands-on experience with Code work.

A certificate of completion will be issued to registrants who successfully complete the course.
