A couple of failures at the assembled joints of the above stated material over the years is a major concern here. Is there any convenient monitoring technique to determine the structural integrity of this pipe considering damage mechanisms such as fibre debonding, resin cracking, bond or thread...
A 9 course EFRT with diameter as 76.2m, Height as 21.9m, built in 1971 and still in-service states that course 1 - 7 was constructed with Fe52 material while the 8th/9th course was built with Fe42B material.
Am unable to find the material equivalent for material of construction and require...
Many kudos for all your response! In reality, tees and elbows are a little thicker than the same welded/seamless carbon steel[austenitic steel] pipe of the same pipe schedule {this can be verified when measured using the DM4 DL [krautkramer]thickness Gage}. For example,3''Sch 160 has the...
jcfoley, thanks for your response. ASME B31.3 and ANSI B31.4/8 is the relevant code for my stress calculations involving defect assessement for corroded piping.
Your advise is needed.
ANSI pipe thickness for a schedule 80 3'' pipe (carbon steel) is 7.62mm. Please can somebody tell me the corresponding wall thickness for a 3'' 90 degrees elbow, and a 3'' x 3'' Tee? What formula was used? Any internet resource of interest will be appreciated.
