Well we did have a special course in it.
Had to learn how to deal with inches and associated constants for oil,pressure vessel and pipe work.
Learned how ****e yank steel was (shocking bad for both fatigue and corrosion). Always buy from Japan cause the Brit stuff was ****e as well after they shut down Ravenscraig.
All was going well until we had to convert critical crack intensity's which I think from memory are Nmm^0.75 to the yank equiv. At which point I was forced to go to the pub.
