Regarding Class E welds in pressure pipelines
Thread Content
Class E welds in pressure pipelines refer to the welds between pressure-bearing components and non-pressure-bearing components. . . . . . The fillet joints between stressed and unstressed components include the fillet welds that connect pipes, pipe fittings with brackets/suspension frames, and cladding plates; such welds are prefixed with E. I’d appreciate some guidance: what regulations specify this, or where can I find welding diagrams for such welds?
I only remember that the welds are classified into A, B, C, D, and E categories; I can’t recall anything about pipes
It’s on the device; check GB150
Yes, I see it on the device, but my document clearly states that it’s a pipe. . . So I’m asking, is welding required between things like supports and pipes?
The compressed elements refer to pipes, while the non-compressed elements refer to support and hanger components, right?
Check the design and build according to the drawings; some things are necessary while others are not. ^_^
