Pipe Stress Engineer

Responsibilities

Prepare complete documentation of the pipe stress analysis and support design for process piping and utility piping systems in support of nuclear and non-nuclear projects by :

Perform piping flexibility analysis (static and dynamic) for critical piping systems

Perform analysis for sustained, thermal and multiple operating cases, occasional (winds, seismic, relief, water hammer etc.)

Locate and identify pipe supports on isometrics along with type of supports (e.g. spring hangers, snubbers, struts, etc.)

Coordinate selection, location, and support loads with Civil / Structure group to assist in design / selection of supports

Resolve high pipe loads on equipment nozzles & high secondary stresses in piping

Evaluation of local stresses via code cases

Review and sign-off piping isometrics considering flexibility and supporting
