Services
Finite Element Analysis
Our FEA services use advanced computational modeling to analyze stress, thermal effects, and fatigue life in pressure equipment. We validate complex designs that exceed traditional code limitations, ensuring structural integrity under operational loads. Clients benefit from precise predictions of permissible cycle life and failure modes for critical components.
CRN Registration
We specialize in Canadian Registration Number (CRN) validation for pressure vessels, piping systems, and fittings. Our expertise spans all provinces, ensuring compliance with jurisdiction-specific requirements. Clients receive streamlined registration processes and expert guidance for both standard and non-standard designs.
Pipe Stress Analysis
Our pipe stress analysis services ensure compliance with B31.1 and B31.3 codes using Caesar II software. We evaluate thermal expansion, seismic loads, and equipment nozzle forces to prevent failure in industrial piping systems. Clients gain optimized designs that meet safety and operational standards.
ASME Code Design
We provide ASME VIII-1 and VIII-2 compliant designs for pressure vessels, boilers, and heat exchangers. Our engineers use Compress and PV Elite software to ensure code compliance while addressing unique client requirements. This service guarantees regulatory approval and operational reliability.
Thermal Analysis
Our thermal analysis services evaluate temperature distribution effects on pressure equipment using computational fluid dynamics. Clients receive detailed assessments of thermal stress impacts in heat exchangers and electrical heaters, ensuring safe operation under varying thermal loads.

Questions
What is CRN registration and why is it required?
CRN (Canadian Registration Number) is mandatory for pressure equipment used in Canada. It ensures compliance with provincial safety standards through design validation by registered professional engineers.
How does FEA benefit pressure vessel design?
Finite Element Analysis allows precise stress and fatigue life predictions for complex geometries beyond standard code calculations, ensuring safer and more efficient designs.
Do you offer international engineering services?
Yes, while specializing in Canadian regulations, we provide design and analysis services to clients worldwide with cross-jurisdictional compliance expertise.
What piping codes do you support?
We work with B31.1, B31.3, and B31.5 piping codes, offering Caesar II stress analysis and seismic compliance validation for industrial systems.
How long does CRN registration take?
Typical registration takes 3-6 months across all Canadian jurisdictions, depending on design complexity and provincial review timelines.
