Hi all,
I am designing a scraper trap in which I have two shell courses ( pipes ) on either side of eccentric reducer. I am to design the pipes as per ASME code B31.8, which I did. But how am I supposed to calculate the required thickness for the eccentric reduced ?
Also the thickness of both the shell courses( pipes) are different.

Thank you !!
