Hi,

Quick question. Does the Corrosion allowance or mil tolerance get taken into account in the stiffness of the system for the stress calculation?

Cheers

No. The flexibility analysis should be based on nominal dimensions. Corrosion, when addressed by the Codes, is addressed in the stress calculation only (M/Zcorr instead of M/Z).
