Ho Friends,
The value of the angle alpha in the following figure is given as less than 71.5 degrees in UW-9(c)(2). Can we assume that this angle can be any value between 0 deg and 71.5 deg? Or are there any other restictions. We normally provide this angle as 30 deg.
Thank you in advance.

Dear Friends,
Why is embedded length not a factor in calculating the size of pressure vessel anchor bolts?
Is there a method to calculate required length of anchor bolt when the foundation is made of structural steel and not concrete?
Kind Regards,

Cryogenic pressure vessels are double walled with outer jcakets fully enveloping the inner vessel. The annular space between the inner and outer vessels is fully vaccumized and filled with expanded perlite. In a normal case the external pressure on the jecket is 15 psig or less. As per Appendix-...
Hi All,
As per 2011 addenda of Div-2, the following detial 4.2.10.8 is not readily radiographable. However, in recent editions of Div-2 , it (Detail 4.2.10.7) is readily radiographable. What could be the reason for the change?

Hi Fellow Engineers
I have come across the weld detial given below.
Is it mandatory to provide an internal projection for the nozzle at the location marked with red arrow to have a minimum fiillet weld of size tc? Or is ok to increase the fillet weld size from zero at this location to a...
ASME SEC VIII Div 2, Para 4.19.2(g) states that "The length of the cylindrical shell on each side of the bellows shall not be less than 1.8√(Dsts)". While starting point for measurement of this length is provided by fig 4.19.2, the ending point of measurement of this legth is not clear. Is the...
Is it an intent of code paragraph U-2(g)(1)(-a) to exclude the use of Appendix 46 to design the components of a Division 1 pressure vessel when design rules exist in Division 1?
