How are you using the term "stress reduction factor"?
I believe any sort of cycling stress not matter the source, can contribute to fatigue failure. B31.3 obviously points to the major source of such a stress.
You may want to use the welded joint design fatigue curves found in ASME Section VIII Division 2 Annex 3-F. See equation (3-F.4).
