The equation that BigInch used to answer the previous question is as below:
E_psi * R_in / (Sa - PD/4/t)

Reviewing the thread it all makes sense except two of the variables in the above equation.
The R - shouldn't that be a D for the diameter of the pipe?
And the PD/4/t - shouldn't that be PD/4t?

Thanks for clarifying.
