Dear Experts,
We are usually engaged in carrying out the user acceptance inspection of various piping and fittings. Out of those, butt weld end elbows are inspected as per ASME B 16.9.
Now particularly the 45° Elbows are very hard to inspect due to the fact that the center to end distance given in the code cannot be easily measured as the elbow cannot stay flat on the ground and rotates according to its center of mass.
One way we discovered was to join two elbows end to end and measuring the face to face and comparing it to the dimensions of 90° Elbow, but still chances of error remain.
Any comments / suggestions are much appreciated.
Regards,
Muhammad Ali
