Re: Weight of Valves

Piping Guide (Part II) by Sherwood and Whitstance would have most of the data on valves, piping and piping components. Its listed in the amazon.com and probably cost less than a hundred bucks.

Or You may get in touch with your favorite supplier and request for the free catalog published by French-based Trouvay and Cauvin – Materiel Petrole. It has everything you needed - tech info/stanadrd for pipe and piping material.

This type of query requesting data to complete a stress calc is getting out of hands. Im assuming that anybody who has an access to a $10 grand CAE software would have at least own a couple of catalogs related to valves, flanges, insulation, hangers & supports, pipe and fittings (which can be had for a song) plus the very basic piping handbooks or guides (plenty listed in the piping design central).

  for valves for sizes more than 12". The purpose of this is that I'm trying to do CAESAR II stress analysis for a 24" water injection line with many jump-over and move valves. CAESAR II data includes only valves upto 12".
