I am trying to estimate the rough yield strength and endurance limit or fatigue behavior for a 316SS fillet weld. I really just need rough (though realistic and up to date) numbers but I am having trouble finding a resource for this. I know the ASME BVPC has SN curves for 300 series welds...
We had a vendor construct a small 2in piping system spec'd to ASME B31.3. MAWP is 200psig.
The pieces came back and didn't have full penetration welds for joining things like elbows and T-sections. Meaning they had a solid exterior weld but on the inside you couldn't see the weld, only the seam...
On page 167 of my 2017 edition of ASME B16.5 they give flange dimension specs for different types of flanges.
I am using a lap joint flange, and one of the dimensional columns is "Minimum Thickness for Lap Joint", however I can't find what dimension this is actually referring to.
It could be...
