Dear all,
I want to evaluate if we have to use thrust blocks for direction changes of a welded buried pipe installation. I found a Restrained Joints design procedure herein:

,but for ductile iron pipes. Does anyone have used a similar procedure...
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.
