Summary of the lecture
A comprehensive overview is provided of the principles involved in designing and fabricating equipment made from clad steel, a material that combines the structural strength of carbon steel with the corrosion resistance of stainless steels or nickel-based alloys. The content reviews manufacturing routes for clad products, key metallurgical and mechanical properties, and essential considerations for welding, forming, inspection, and quality control. Typical applications in the chemical, petrochemical, refining, and power industries are also outlined, with emphasis on how clad steel enhances durability while reducing overall lifecycle costs.
What you will learn:
-
- Explain the purpose of clad steel and the advantages of combining a carbon steel base with a corrosion-resistant alloy layer.
- Identify the main manufacturing processes used to produce clad plates, pipes, and components.
- Evaluate the mechanical and metallurgical properties that influence performance in demanding industrial environments.
- Apply recommended practices for welding, forming, heat treatment, inspection, and fabrication of clad components.
- Select appropriate clad materials for specific chemical and petrochemical service conditions based on corrosion behaviour and mechanical requirements.
- Assess the economic and operational benefits of clad steel compared with solid alloy alternatives in industrial plant design.
