Home District/Group: Kiewit Power Engineering
Department: Design Engineering
Market: Power
Employment Type: Full Time
Position Overview
Seeking a skilled pipe stress engineer to join our growing team and help deliver safe, constructible and efficient piping systems for major power, industrial and water projects.
District Overview
Kiewit Power Engineering Group brings various project types to life across North America, including gas-fired generation, power delivery, environmental retrofits, renewables and new technology, and water/wastewater. Our staff leads the power markets engineering process and collaborates with Kiewit's construction teams to focus on safe, cost-effective and innovative designs that achieve client expectations and further Kiewit's legacy of excellence.
Location
This position would be based out of our office in Lenexa, KS; however, we have opportunity for flexible work based on your experience and level.
Responsibilities
Analysis and Design
  • Perform thermal flexibility analyses for critical piping systems to ensure system integrity and compliance with ASME Codes, using AutoPIPE.
  • Perform analysis of sustained, thermal displacement, occasional (wind, seismic, relief, turbine trip etc.) and test (hydrotest) loads.
  • Use AutoPIPE to ensure acceptable piping nozzle loads on equipment like steam turbines, compressors, pumps, tanks, exchangers, heaters etc.
  • Select appropriate pipe supports and develop detailed and individualized specifications for their procurement. This includes shoes, guides, rigid rod hangers, spring hangers, snubbers, and struts.
  • Calculate and organize pipe support loads transmitted to structural steel into an Excel format that can be easily interpreted by structural and other disciplines.
  • Perform supplemental calculations for localized stresses to verify the integrity of fittings, attachments and other irregular geometries using manual calculations, Excel, Mathcad or NozzlePro

Documentation and Review
  • Organize and maintain AutoPIPE analysis, reference documentation and supplemental calculations in project folders maintaining established file naming convention and integrity of the revision history.
  • Prepare stress calculation packages to document design basis, verify proper checking and signoffs and to track revision history.
  • Check AutoPIPE analysis and stress calculations performed by other members of the piping engineering group.
  • Review piping isometric drawings in to ensure pipe supports, piping materials, fittings and other details align with the AutoPIPE analysis.
  • Review P&IDs, Line Designation tables and thermal performance data to ensure alignment between the overall system design, stress analysis and piping isometric drawings.
  • Review and check designs, drawings, interface detail and data from external suppliers of components like pipe supports, valves and rotating equipment.

Collaboration and Coordination
  • Collaborate with the structural engineering team, issuing pipe support loads imposed on the structural steel and refine the details and interactions at structural steel to pipe support contact or connection points.
  • Collaborate with designers, mechanical engineers, structural engineers and the construction team to optimize pipe routing and support schemes.
  • Follow established workflows, and work diligently to meet aggressive schedule demands in support of construction.

Qualifications
  • 2+ years power plant design experience (or related plant design experience) with an emphasis in pipe stress analysis/design and support.
  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, structural engineering, or equivalent engineering program from an ABET accredited four-year university.
