Hi fellows, I'm doing a revision of the design of a pig trap (B31.4) and I can't find in the code if this kind of component needs a special desing factor. Could I design a pig trap with F=0.72?.

Regards

You can, if you don't need less. The B31.4 code states that the maximum design factor cannot be more than 0.72. It allows, but doesn't specify a minimum.[ul]

Hi BigInch, thanks for the answer. I was looking a reference inside the code about pig traps... but I didn't found it.

Regards and I hate windows 8 too
