R stamp requirement?
Hi all, Is R-Stamp required for replacement of a piece of pipe attached to a weldolet? We have a Div.1 pressure vessel with a weldolet on the bottom for drain. We need to replace in-kind the corroded pipe that is welded on the weldolet. Is there any issue with the Code? Thanks all experts.- intaim13
