This presentation, by Jeff Fraser and Jeff Graves of RPS Composites, provides a comprehensive overview of the essential steps for successful field installation of FRP and dual laminate piping systems, focusing on meeting operational life expectancy and minimizing risk.
Key installation best practices discussed include proper storage and handling, support placement and alignment, bolt torque sequencing for flanged connections, joint bonding and lamination techniques, and field quality control inspections.
By adhering to rigorous quality standards during site assembly and field bonding, plant owners can prevent premature joint leaks, mechanical strain, and unexpected failures in critical chemical process piping.
