We purchased 3/4" plate in advance, not intending to use it for primary steel members (all primary steel structure was supplied to us). Now we have to weld in some...

    Apologies, even cylindrical vessels have many angles. The vessel plan view shows the nozzle orientation with respect to 0degrees (e.g. Nozzle A at 90 degrees, Nozzle B at 125 degrees). I want to know if there is an allowable tolerance for this angular orientation in a plan view of a vessel. So...
