Before I purchase asme B31.3 can someone tell me if this pub. spells out the thickness for paddle blinds in different metals. Need thickness for hydro pressures.
 
ASME B16.48 shows the thickness based upon flange facing and class.

B31.3 provides a formula for calculating the minimum required thickness based upon the ID of the flange, design pressure material stress value and a quality factor.
