Edge bending, i had never thought of that. Sorry for my inexperience, but where would i find an equation for that (what code book)? This is just frustrating me because some thickness that i calculate match up perfectly with B16.48, but then there are some thickness in random spots that are off...
hello, i am trying to calculate some blind flange thicknesses but when i compare my values to those being used in B16.48, some thicknesses are off whereas others match up. I am currently using a yield strength of 38,000, gasket diameters from B16.20 & B16.21 and the equation:
t=...
