Do ASME Standard Suggests formulae or any other method for getting MAWP value of Non-standard flange/Customised Flange?

Karthik P, the usual approach is to design the flange, then recursively increase the design pressure, holding all else constant, until the flange fails in some way. The highest pressure not resulting in failure is the MAWP. Best done by computer methods, even a spreadsheet.

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand
 
Make one, pressure test it to destruction then divide by 3?
