Yeah!
From a pipers point of view. But the catch there is, pipes are manufactured (ASME B36.10M) across broader various thickness or schedules(5, 10,20, 40 to 160) whilst fittings (e.g buttweld) are manufactured across closer thickness designations of STD, XS, 160,STD.
This places a little dilemma on the designer, which is easily solved. When calculations give a pipe schedule of no corresponding component schedule, he, conservatively selects a piping component with a thickness (or schedule) thicker than the pipe.
So that informed my question, from the position of developing a specification, how to change tubes (or pipes) in the same spec to reflect different but included detail texts.
I'm studying De-ding reply, not an easy one I must confess but my gratitude all the same.
