MiketheEngineer - Thanks for the input.
In this case, the pipe is being used in China. The specifications are coming from a Chinese Engineer, hence the Chinese Standards. We are doing some pipe design and need somehow to review the specifications / requirements of the referenced standards.
Anyone familiar with Chinese Pipe Standards GB/T 12459 & Flange Standard HG 20592? The ANSI store offers the GB/T 12459 standard in Chinese text only.
We are mainly trying to find dimensional information for modeling purposes. I am guessing the pipe and fittings match up with ISO 4200 (ASME...
I appreciate the responses.
In this case I have decided that we will provide plate flanges, either back-up or slip-on per BPV code (Requirement of B31... for non-listed components).
Because the piping system (below 24") is designed with A105 lap joint flanges I cannot use AWWA flanges as they...
We are currently designing a piping system for a pulp mill in South America. Most of our systems are designed to ASME B31.1 or B31.3.
The problem: As our plants increase in output our pipe sizes are becoming larger and larger. Unfortunately the listed components (of B31...) no longer cover...
