am i the only person who is alarmed that someone who is new to piping is attempting to pipe live steam as intended without any experience?
write the job requirement spec, and give it to a piping company.
Hello again with respect to my post
The reason is that corrosion (from the outside -in) is rotting the pipework.
It IS currently cheaper to use S/S pipework, rather than paint Carbon steel pipework.
My question is aimed at the material side of things.ie

A client is changing over his general steam/condensate distrubution slowly to Stainless Steel (316l)
This for some reason is concerning me.
What are the risks and benefits of such a course?
The system will be a mixture of carbon steel/Stainless steel
Under 185c temp.
Any answers???
A common problem.
Often given by the structural engineer to help him start the design.
My advise is this. think simple.
Your rack should be designed for dead load only.
give the strucutral engineer a X-sectional drawing of your rack showing the position and size of all lines on it.

I am after an equation to calculate pipe spans for sloping lines in the format of span being a function of slope,
so that no pockets occur. please post the hicks...
A simple answer to why it is unreasonable to use 31.3 in a
PED environment is if you compare it to EN14380 on size alone.
31.3 is a 'small' single volume document, EN13480 is a 7 volume document, covering all aspects of design and construction.
cb4 is correct,
however, in the event of an...
This is aimed at engineers who are designing plant for operation within europe.
It is now law within europe that we use PED for plant design, and as such the use of EN13480 in Mandatory.
I am begining to use En13480 within the enviroment of Caesar II.
I have asked Coade about the inclusion of...
