Description:
The benefits and challenges of applying Division 2.
This intensive two-day course provides you with a sound basis for the
application of the Division 2 Code requirements. Additionally, this
Division is not only used by U2 Certificate holders, but offers a lot
of advantages for Division 1 users, too. Many of its modern calculation
rules – including FEA under certain circumstances – can be used for
Division 1 vessels as well. This course will not only cover topics
such as responsibilties, material, fabrication, inspection and examination,
but will also give you a profound overview of the design part. In addition
to Part 4 “Design by Rule”, we will explain in detail the Elastic Stress
Analysis, Limit Load and Elastic-Plastic Stress Method in the “Design by Analysis” Part 5.
The seminar language
is English.

Michael
Frohnert's main
field of activities
is preparing and
reviewing design
calculations
according to the
ASME Code and other
international Codes
and Standards for
the plant and
mechanical
engineering
industries as well
as performing ASME
inspections and
audits. Before
changing to CIS GmbH
he started his
professional career
at ONE/TÜV/BV in
Essen where he
worked as a design
engineer, inspector
and seminar
instructor. During
his time with
One/TÜV/BV he
qualified in the
ASME Code business
as an ASME
Authorized Inspector
and went on to
become an
experienced
Authorized Inspector
Supervisor. He also
holds a National
Board endorsement as
Authorized Nuclear
Inspector. Michael
has held numerous
public seminars and
tailor-made
in-company trainings
and workshops
covering a wide
range of topics. His
in-depth involvement
in the practical
application of the
ASME design rules is
a very beneficial
and valuable feature
of his seminar work.
On behalf of ASME he
conducts their
Section VIII,
Division 2 seminars
in Europe and Middle
East. Michael
Frohnert represents
CIS GmbH in the ASME
Group of Interested
Experts managed by
the ASME Delegate of
Germany.
