Hi Etz, Thank you for your input, I think it validates my thoughts. To me it looks like they borrowed the equation from the ASME code but made an error. The ASME code has SEW/I, AS4041 has feMW*I in the denominator. The EN code I was not familiar with, it is interesting that it multiplies the...

Thanks for the tip, I will try to add in the specific references here.

Thank you for your detailed response, much appreciated. In my cases I tend to find using the inside diameter results in a smaller tf value result. For some cases, using outside diameter results in a tf > d/4, where if I change to use the inside diameter formula it falls below this value. We...

When comparing AS4041 and ASME B31.3, I noticed a difference between the way they handle minimum wall thickness calculations for bent pipes. Compare the formulas in the following sections; AS4041 Cl. 3.15.2 ASME B31.3 Cl. 304.2 AS4041 suggests a larger wall thickness is required in the...
