The standard A860 is more strict in both chemical and mechanical requirements, you can use WPHY 42, 46 and maybe WPHY 52 as WPL6 , when the tensile strength is not over 95 ksi, the yield strength,elongation and charpy values are lower for WPL6 with not maximum values. The WPL3, WPL8 and WPL9 are...
I believe that you are talking about flanges, low carbon steel, both standards, A105 and A694, are very different in the chemical and mechanical requirements,
This is a very general question, what material will be used? Stainless, low carbon steel, high yield material so when you know the material you need to know which specification applied to them. I agreed with EdStainless in all points
Is very difficult to do any analysis from the picture, the first step will be send out this pipe section for a failure analysis and when you have the results from it you will determine the next step
