REINFORCEMENT OF WELDED BRANCH CONNECTIONS

 h subscript referring to run or header.
b subscript referring to branch.
Th nominal thickness of run or header. 21
Tb nominal thickness of branch. 13
d1 effective length removed from pipe at branch, mm. 199.35
d2 "half width" of reinforcement zone, mm. 199.35
L4 height of reinforcement zone outside of run pipe, mm. 42.19
Tb branch pipe thickness, mm. 11.38
Th header pipe thickness, mm. 18.38
Tr minimum thickness of reinforcing pad, mm. 18.4
th pressure design thickness of run pipe, mm. 9.36
tb pressure design thickness of branch pipe, mm. 5.12
β smaller angle between axis of branch and run. 90
Db outside diameter of branch pipe, mm. 219.10
Dh outside diameter of run pipe, mm. 406.40

1. d1 = [Db - 2(Tb - c)]/sin β 199.35

2. d2= greater of d1 or (Tb - c) + (Th - c) + d1/2 126.43

Therefore d2 199.35

3. L4 = lesser of 2.5(Th - c), mm or 42.19

2.5(Tb - c) + Tr, mm. 43.09

REQUIRED REINFORCEMENT AREA

1. A1 = thd1(2 - sinβ), mm2 1865.70

AVAILABLE AREA

A2 + A3 + A4 >= A1

Where
A2 Area resulting from excess thickness in the run pipe wall, mm2. 1498.33
A3 Area resulting from excess thickness in the branch pipe wall, mm2. 401.51
A4 Area of other metal provided by welds & properly attached reinforcement, mm 2. -34.14
Dr Outside diameter of reinforcement ring, mm. 406.4
Sr Stress value for reinforcement ring material, N/mm2. 88.25
ha Height of the fillet weld between run pipe & reinforcement ring, mm. 3.00
hb Height of the fillet weld between branch pipe & reinforcement ring, mm. 3.00

1. A2 = (2d2 - d1)(Th - th -c) 1498.33

2. A3 = 2L4(Tb - tb - c)/sinβ 401.51

3. A2 + A3 1899.85

Additional reinforcement required NO

A1 - ( A2 + A3 ) <= A4 -34.14

1. Area of reinforcement ring, mm2. 3441.64

2. Area of fillet weld, mm2. 18.00

NOTES:

1. All values are rounded of upto two decimal places.

2. Some nomenclatures which are not present in the figure have been added for carrying out calculations.
3. Height and base of the fillet welds is assumed to be equal.
4. d2 in any case shall not be greater than Dh.
