good morning
what is the minimum size of reinforcing pads?
so I need reinforcing pad not to withstand pressure at intersections but to lower SIF of the intersection.
(low pressure big bore pipes with thickness just bit above 100 times pipe diameter, 15 mm thk 1320 mm DIA)
it is also a crowded pipe collector full of branches.
I would usually put external radius of pad equal to diameter of branch but space is not enough.
thank you for any suggestion.
