STIFFENING RINGS FOR NON CYLINDRICAL SHELLS [ASMEVIII-UG-29].
STIFFENING RINGS FOR NON CYLINDRICAL SHELLS [ASMEVIII-UG-29].
(OP)
Dear Sir/Madam,
I wonder if anyone can provide me with a procedure for calculating a Stiffening Ring, as the one presented in ASME VIII - UG-29 for cylindrical shells, but without circular cross section (it's a square to circular nozzle). Note that I am not limited to a Code.
Thanks in advance.

Is there any reason you cannot apply Appx. 13?

Yes, ignorance. Sorry, I am new to ASME VIII, for most of my work I only need AWWA.
Best regards.

There are days when I wake up feeling like the dumbest man on the planet, then there are days when I confirm it.
