Misalignment Pipes Standards

crankPT · Jul 12, 2017

Hello,

I'm a very recent technician as a quality control in shipbuilding industry taking focus in pipe systems.
So in order to do a better examination and learn more, i've been trying to find some standards or guidelines that tell me wich tolerance a misalignment in pipes unions, coupling... might have.

In BV and DNV-GL standards i can't find nothing in concrete, so can you help me?

You might be better off looking at vendor literature for the type of couplings that are in use.

You're right...for example for straub couplings the vendor provides a technical manual that tells misalignments. But in butt welds or fillet welds, is there something in IACS or something?

You will get a lot of references from the net using combination search words : pipe alignment tolerances welding.

Use also the same for eng-tips internal search engine.

Best luck.
