60/0.25 = 240 [ >>100 ]

Don't overthink it.

Has ASME B31.3 2012 added WRC-497 requirement?

RE: ASME B31.3 2012 D/t >100, REFERENCE WRC497

LSThill,
        Why not buy the Standard and find out??

RE: ASME B31.3 2012 D/t >100, REFERENCE WRC497

By inference, yes it has.  Fabricated branch connections require engineering.  WRC-497 gives you a method of calculating the adequacy of a proposed design.

Or you can hire an engineer to do a fine-grid FEA.  That alternative makes $100 for the WRC look pretty cheap to me.
