B31.11 is superseded/withdrawn and currently falls under B31.4 scope.
Are you sure your design should be acc. B31.11? If so, refer to paragraphs 1134.7.2 and 1106.2.2 for more info on fabrication and limitations of mitered bends for B31.11 applications.



 
It's allowed. Just follow the rules.
 
Be aware that 31.4 prohibits miter / mitre bends where the pipeline operates at more than 20% of SMYS (404.2.4)

They are commonly banned by most clients.

what service is this for?

My motto: Learn something new every day

Also: There's usually a good reason why everyone does it that way
