PIPE FLANGES AND FLANGED FITTINGS

GENERAL NOTES: (a) When the materials joined have equal minimum specified yield strength, there shall be no restriction on the minimum slope. (b) Neither t1, t2, nor their sum t1 + t2 shall exceed 0.5t. (c) When the minimum specified yield strengths of the sections to be joined are unequal, the value of tD shall at least equal the mating wall thickness times the ratio of minimum specified yield strength of the pipe to minimum specified yield strength of the flange. (d) Welding shall be in accordance with the applicable code.
