Why don't seamless components have 100% joint efficiency?
Why don't seamless components have 100% joint efficiency?
(OP)
In Section VIII, Div. 1, why is there a requirement for spot radiography in order to use E = 1.0 in calculations for SEAMLESS shell sections and heads? Does that make sense?
Thanks.
Thanks.

In such a case, E has nothing to do with longitudinal seams because there is no longitudinal seam. Seamless head or shell also have circular seams to get together. E is for this circular seams. Conclusively the rule, in my opinion, makes sense.
