Hello all,

I have below one question that may be very silly but i am stuck to find the answer.

"UW-16(f)(2) stated that:"(2) Fittings not exceeding NPS 3 (DN 80) shown on Figure UW-16.1, sketches (x), (y), (z), (aa), and (bb) may be attached by welds that are exempt from size requirements with the following limitations"

I have question what is meaning of "that are exempt from size requirements" in the above clause.

Thanks in Advance
 
Jagmtr, the weld sizing requirements are shown in the various sketches; example "t1 + t2 >= 1 1/4 tmin". The welds may be exempt form this requirement subject to rules in (f)(2)(-a) & (-b).

Regards,

Mike

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand

Of course. Best of luck :)
