Specifies the fitting outside radius for branch connections. This option is used for reduced branch connections in the ASME piping codes, Bonney Forge Insert Weldolets, and for WRC 329 intersection SIF calculations. Configuration options exist to invoke the WRC 329 calculations and to limit the application of the reduced branch connection rules to unreinforced fabricated tees, sweepolets, weldolets, and extruded welding tees.

For B31J, this property applies to weldolets. See Type or Intersection Types.

Default Values

  • When no value is defined, the software uses the outside radius of the branch pipe.

When no value is defined for B31J, the software uses a predefined default. See Limits and Conditions in B31J Methods.
