Set-through nozzle weld size
Set-through nozzle weld size
(OP)
Using ASME VIII Div1 - the weld sizes can be determined by using the rules on sketch (i) of Section UW-16. But is there an actual calculation method used to 'design' the weld size anywhere, as an alternative?





RE: Set-through nozzle weld size
Note the rules of UG-41 cannot be used to reduce weld sizes below minimums required elsewhere.

RE: Set-through nozzle weld size
Are you saying that even if I have a calculation to size the fillet welds, and it produces a smaller fillet than UW-16 suggests, I still need to use the UW-16 size as a minimum?
