Does anyone have experience using API 5L X65M SAWL pipe under design code ASME B31.3 with a design temperature of -48°C? Although we have impact tests which meet the requirements according ASME B31.3 Table 323.3.5, I have my doubts about the weldability in a pipe system. Can we use our standard...
ASTM A333Gr6 seamless pipe, CVN 14 / 18 J at -50°F / -45°C, is available up to 24”. Above the 24” ASTM A333Gr6 welded pipe is available. As alternative API 5L X52N PSL2 welded pipe is prescribed often. At material certificates we find both standards with material descriptions also.

Good afternoon,
For piping with design code ASME B31.3 we usually use fasteners A2 or A4 according ISO 3506-1.
Unfortunately I cannot find the A2 and A4 steel grades in Tabel A-1M of the ASME B31.1.
Is there any link or interpretation about using materials A2 and A4 according ISO 3506-1 within...
Have to calculate the seismic impact on a vertical steel vessel structure at a jetty.
Using the ASCE 7-10, this calculation is no problem for me. However, my client asks a UBC 97 calculation.
Starting studying the UBC 97, Volume 2, Section 1629, I have been forwarded to Table 16-K.
This Table...
While studying the ASME BTH-1-2014 chapter 3-3.1, I cannot understand following sentence:
"When the gravity axes of connecting, axially stressed members do not intersect at one point, provision shall be made for ..."
Please, can somebody make one sketch with intersected gravity axes and one...
