BS 7910 in Practice: Structural Integrity Training

Engineers responsible for maintaining welded equipment and structures increasingly face complex challenges in ensuring structural safety and performance. To support these professionals, TWI's Structural Integrity Assessment and Practical Application of BS 7910 Procedures online course delivers a robust blend of theory, practical tools and internationally-recognised methodology for flaw assessment and fitness-for-purpose evaluation.

Delivered live via interactive Zoom sessions, the course runs over six weekday sessions spread across two weeks. It introduces key concepts such a engineering critical assessment (ECA) and fitness-for-purpose; combining lectures, discussions, quizzes, videos and software exercises to reinforce learning.

At the heart of the programme is the British Standard BS 7910, the authoritative guide for assessing the acceptability of flaws in metallic structures. Participants gain a deep understanding of BS 7910 procedures and how they apply to welded structures - from fracture mechanics fundamentals and fatigue crack growth case studies to practical CrackWISE software assessments.

Material properties, non-destructive testing, fracture assessment using failure assessment diagrams (FADs), and fatigue procedures are all covered in detail, providing engineers a firm foundation for evaluating structural integrity in real-world settings.

This live online format offers practical training without the need for travel. letting professionals balance continuous development with work commitments while gathering essential insights into one of the industry's most important standards for structural assessment.

For engineers working in structural integrity, welding, inspection, materials, pipeline and maintenance sectors, this course builds confidence in applying BS 7910 methodologies - ultimately supporting safer and more informed engineering decisions.
