3、rgPFI Standard ES-26 |Denotes Revision (Revised December 2013) WELDED LOAD BEARING ATTACHMENTS TO PRESSURE RETAINING PIPING MATERIALS METRIC CONVERSIONS The conversion of quantities between systems of units involves a determination of significant digits to be retained. All conversions depend upon th

4、e intended precision of the original quantity and are rounded to the appropriate accuracy. Pipe sizes together with applicable wall thicknesses are not shown with metric equivalents. The SI (metric) values where included with the customary U.S. values in this Standard are the rounded equivalents of

5、the U.S. values and are for reference only. Metric units were derived utilizing the following conversion factor: Conversion Factor Conversion Factor Inches to Millimeters 25.4 Deg. Fahr. to Deg. Cent. 5/9 (Deg. F. 32) Lb/in2to Kg/cm20.0703 Preface Non-integral attachments, such as pipe clamps, are t

6、ypically recognized as the most practical solution for the support of piping. However, as use of non-integral type attachments is not always feasible for all locations or load conditions, an alternate arrangement becomes necessary. The intent of this standard is to provide procedures to apply for ut

7、ilization of integral-type support attachments. 1. Scope 1.1 This standard covers minimum recommended requirements for materials, design, fabrication and inspection of load bearing attachments, such as, but not limited to, ears, shoes, lugs, fins, rings, skirts, anchors, guides, etc., which are to b

8、e fabricated and welded to piping materials that will become part of a pressure retaining piping system. It is not intended to apply to lug or clip attachments whose basic function is to provide support for pipe insulation. 2. Material 2.1 All material shall conform to the requirements of one of the

9、 acceptable material specifications listed or referenced in the ASME B31 Code for Pressure Piping or the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code as applicable. 2.2 All material shall be of weldable quality and shall be of the same type or of compatible composition with the material to which it is to be

10、 welded. 2.3 All filler metal shall comply with the requirements of Section II, Part C ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. A filler metal not incorporated in Section II may be used if a procedure qualification test is first successfully completed in accordance with Section IX requirements. 3. Desi

11、gn 3.1 The design temperature to be used for the attachment shall be the same as the design temperature of the piping to which it is to be welded. 3.2 The maximum allowable stresses to apply to the attachment shall be those given in the applicable Code for the nominal composition of the attachment m

12、aterial to be used, but in no case greater than the allowable stress for the piping material to which it is to be welded. 3.3 The maximum allowable design stresses to apply for filler metal shall be those listed in the applicable Code for the nominal composition, but in no case greater than the allo

13、wable stress for the piping material to which it is to be attached. . 3.4 The allowable supporting loads per linear inch or centimeter, of fillet welds shall not exceed those listed in Table l. PFI Standard ES-26 |Denotes Revision (Revised December 2013) 3.5 To minimize differences in thermal expans

14、ion of contact surfaces, the coefficient of thermal expansion of the attachment should be the same or as close as possible to that of the piping material to which it is to be welded. 3.6 Each attachment shall be designed for support of all imposed loadings consisting of but not limited to the follow

15、ing: a. Static loads as determined by weight balance calculations including weight of the pipe, insulation and the weight of fluid content, cleaning fluid or fluid used for hydrostatic testing, whichever is the greatest. b. All other external loading as specified by the piping design that may be imp

16、osed by such conditions as: 1. Dynamic loading due to safety valve operation, or other system operation. 2. Thermal fatigue loading due to load changes on restraints and anchors. 3. Additional static loadings imposed by cold pulling during erection. 4. Eccentric loading conditions during operation.

17、5. Any other external loadings such as snow or wind. 3.7 Since the character of loadings, amount of loading and attachment location on piping are variables, no uniform or suggested standardized shapes or dimensional proportions are possible. Hence, individual consideration is necessary in the design

18、 of each attachment. The typical shapes illustrated by Figures 1 through 7 are not necessarily design recommendations for all applications. Prime areas of concern are: a. Localized stresses induced into the piping component by integral welded attachments on lines operating at elevated temperatures.

19、b. The differential expansion stresses between the attached lug and the pipe. c. The differential expansion stresses in the attachment lug itself. Very little experimental data has been obtained on the performance of various lug designs; however, operating experience has shown certain types to be mo

20、re desirable than others. Figure 5 illustrates a type of integral attachment that is acceptable for low thermal differential stresses. Figure 6 depicts an acceptable design for large thermal differential stresses. Loading can be distributed over a larger area by use of a pad between the attachment a

21、nd the pipe as shown in Figure 4. This is useful on light wall pipe subjected to high anchoring stresses, impact loads, or seismic loads. Impact and shock attachments can be made as shown in Figure 7, by using double shear lugs and a pipe clamp. This method is recommended in place of an integral wel

22、ded attachment. Because of the tolerances involved in attaching shear lugs to the pipe and the alignment with the top surface of a riser clamp that is not machined or faced, the following table is recommended for selecting the number of shear lugs: Pipe Size Min. No. of Lugs No. of Lugs Designed to

Houston, TX PFI Standards and Technical Bulletins are published to serve proven needs of the pipe fabricating industry at the design level and in actual shop operations. Hence, such needs are continually considered and reviewed by the En

25、gineering Committee of the Pipe Fabrication Institute to provide recommended procedures, which have been demonstrated by collective experiences to fulfill requirements in a manner for Code compliance. However, as the PFI Standards are for minimum requirements the designer or fabricator always has the option of specifying supplementary conditions in the form of requirements beyond the scope of the PFI publications.
