Who is this course for?

The CAESAR II training course is designed for professionals who design, review, or supervise piping systems and need a tool for reliable stress analysis and to meet the requirements of relevant codes and standards.

Who are the participants?

  • Pipeline designers in the chemical, petrochemical, power generation, and refining industries, responsible for route layout, expansion compensation, and support selection.

  • Mechanical engineers responsible for strength calculations and stress analysis in existing installations (retrofits, changes in operating conditions, capacity upgrades).

  • Technical safety specialists who need to assess the compliance of pipelines with the requirements of ASME B31.x, EN standards, and the guidelines of notified bodies.

  • Project managers and lead engineers who want to better understand CAESAR II analysis results in order to make informed design and investment decisions.

Training programs

We don’t impose a rigid schedule. We believe that the most effective learning comes from real-world examples that your team faces every day. That’s why we tailor the scope of each training session to your specific needs, the nature of your industry, and the participants’ skill levels.

List of sample modules

The basics of operating in CAESAR II®

  • Interface and basic unit configuration
  • Pipeline model structure and data flow
  • Basic concepts of stresses and pipe Ccdes

Modeling pipeline geometry

  • Creating straight sections, bends, tees, and reducers
  • Defining supports, valves, fittings, and flexible components
  • Working with various data entry methods (manually, from isometric views)

Loads, cases, and standards

  • Configuration of dead load, temperatures, pressures, and additional loads
  • Defining design cases in accordance with ASME B31.x
  • Evaluation of tensile, bending, and thermal expansion stresses

Loads on equipment and supports

  • Verification of loads on equipment connections (e.g., API 610 pumps)
  • Selection and configuration of fixed, sliding, and spring-loaded supports
  • Identification of critical points and system modifications to meet requirements

Optimization and Reporting

  • Quick design variations based on the results of background calculations
  • Flexible report generation format for calculation results
  • Clear and easy-to-understand information about errors  

Do you need training using your own models?

We can conduct workshops directly on your design files, addressing your team’s current engineering challenges.

Why should you take the CIM-mes training course?

  • Learn from industry professionals
    We combine our perspective as an official Hexagon partner with engineering practice—we demonstrate not only the software’s features, but also how to effectively solve common stress-related problems in pipelines

  • A practical approach to standards
    We offer a unique opportunity to conduct workshops using your own models and documentation, allowing you to address your team’s current design challenges right during the training

  • Exercises based on real-life cases
    Our program is based on our past work —ranging from simple systems to components of actual installations—ensuring that the knowledge gained is immediately applicable to your projects

  • Customizable to your industry
    We can tailor the training content to the specific needs of your company (e.g., energy, chemicals, refining) by selecting more representative calculation examples

  • Post-training support and certification
    After the course, we offer technical consultations and issue a certificate confirming the skills acquired in using CAESAR II for pipeline stress analysis
