Hey All,
I would like to know some recommendations for making the best type of branch connections in different services.
Another issue is about self reinforced fittings in branch connections. To what extents and sizes these fittings can be used in branch connections? Is it better to use such kind of fitting or making use of pipe to pipe connections with reinforcing pads ?
It would be appreciated if I could have your recommendations ,experiences or some information to read regarding this issue as I am preparing a branch connection table for LNG, NG and water service.

Thanks
