When modeling tees and elbows in FRP what kind of SIF's should be used? Would it be conservative to say use a welding tee SIF for a FRP tee?

No. Read the discussion on FRP in the Technical Reference Manual.

Mul211,

If you are designing as per ISO standard, you can use conservative SIF values. For bend, SIF=2.5 & and for Tee, SIF=2.3

UKOOA and/or BS7159 has different approach.

Goodluck!
