Select the type of weld connecting the nozzle to the shell or head.

The type of weld can optionally be entered in this field. If it is a type A, B, C, D, E, F-1, F-2, F-3, F-4, G, X-1, Y-1, OR Z-1 weld, then CodeCalc will not perform the weld strength calculations.

The code exempts these calculations per paragraph UW-15 when one of the above weld classifications such as A is used.

If it is a type I, J, K, L, X-2, Y-2, Z-2 weld, then CodeCalc will perform the additional weld size calculations per UW-16(d)(1).

Select None if you want the software to perform the weld strength calculations regardless of the type of welded geometry.
