Notations used in ANSI
Notations used in ANSI
(OP)
Hello All,
I just graduated in June and got my first permanent job. I was assigned to do bid evaluations.
Does any1 know a good web resource for me to understand the notations used in ANSI (e.g. 125#FF flange??)
Thanks

The standard engineering handbooks like Perry's Chemical Engineers Handbook and Machinery's Handbook will have sections discussing the different classes and styles of piping, flanges and fittings.
The web site www.pipingdesign.com has quite a bit of info, plus links to other sites.
When I was starting out I found that supplier's catalogs were very useful. Ask in your buying office or your drawing office where they will most likely have a range of catalogs.
If you company is not big enough to have its own pipe standard manual check with the draftsmen in the D.O. - they tend to "accumulate" their own libraries as they move around from contract to contract.
And never stop asking questions. In my experience pipers are a friendly lot, always ready to help each other out.
Good luck

Most people never read codes and standards. Lead, do not follow those people.
