RE: [SOCIAL NETWORK] Re: [MW:27041] Branch connection (Tapping) from a standard fitting

You can take an opening. However, the fitting need to be rechecked for its strength etc as per the ASME code guidelines and this needs to be approved by the client also.

Dear Mr.Nisarg Kedar,

 

Why it is not a good engineering practice?

 

Is there any technical reason for the same or code restricts the same?

 

Regards,

Respected Members,

 

Reference Code: ASME B31.3

 

Can we take a branch connection from a standard fitting (other than using a O'let)?

 

eg: one 1/2" tapping from a eccentric reducer of 3"NBX2"NB.

 

Please guide me with code clause.

 

Regards,
