If you're really a piping designer identify yourself and the
organization you work for. (If you're not a piping designer you're
subscribed to the wrong list.)
Your question is quite broad for a simple answer so I think we need a committee to address it. You seem like the perfect chairman, so I think the list will agree with me that you can head up the PipingDesign materials selection committee. As your first committee assignment do a Google search on material selection, and prepare us a report in English and French since the list has Canadian subscribers. There are plenty of suppliers and manufacturers on the web with discussion about how to select materials, so start with <piping material> and look carefully at each and every one of the 1.63 million hits you'll get. Read each one and make careful notes, then print each page and keep them all in a 3 ring binder. Then prepare your report to share with us and be sure you include a 3 page executive summary, and a web page with a list of textbooks since we get many requests from people who only have a couple of weeks to learn materials engineering.
Congratulations on your new appointment. Good luck and good hunting.
