Hi distinguished professionals,
I am working on a greenfield project in Canada. The piping is to be designed as per B31.3-2020.
When it comes to applying wind, snow and especially seismic effects to piping, I am not sure how these effects should be applied?
I have gone through methods prescribed in ASCE-7 and NBCC but not sure how should I proceed?
I have 2 different options in my mind.
1.Use ASCE-7 methods and use site conditions from a Canadian local authority
2.Use NBCC methods and use site conditions from a Canadian local authority
Can you please guide me on industry practices that is followed when Piping is designed as per B31.3 outside USA?
