COMPRESS with Australian Standard?!
COMPRESS with Australian Standard?!
(OP)
Hi, I am trying to design a bolted flange based on Australian standards. Can COMPRESS do the bolt spacing calculation on a flange based on AS?
Thank You
Thank You





RE: COMPRESS with Australian Standard?!
ASME Code does not place any restrictions on location or spacing of flange bolts. However, COMPRESS includes checks on recommended minimum edge distance, bolt spacing, and wrench clearances as per the TEMA (Tubular [heat] Exchanger Manufacturers Association) Standards. A Warning will be presented if the actual bolt locations do not meet the TEMA recommendations.
