the use of the welding process. These Codes prohibit individual practices contrary to their specified procedure and rules of control, and this is predicated upon the sound requirement that the employer must assume full responsibility for the deposited weld.
It is advisable that this management responsibility be included in all welding specifications and that authoritative standards of workmanship also be specified. The standards of workmanship for this industry are as set forth in the Standard Manual on Pipe Welding of the Heating, Piping and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association.
A complete line of manufactured steel welding fittings is now available

with plain ends machine beveled for welding and with radii similar to short and long radius flanged fittings. Some typical types of these fittings are shown in Fig. 3. They are made in pipe sizes % to 24 in., standard and extra heavy, in steel, wrought iron; brass, copper, and special alloys.
Socket welding fittings of forged steel are also commercially available. These fittings have a machined recess into which the pipe slips. A fillet weld between the pipe and socket edge provides a pressure-tight joint. A proposed American Standard containing dimensions of steel welding-neck flanges for pressures up to 1500 lb per sq in. has been developed in A.S.A

All dimensions given in inches. Size of all fittings listed indicates nominal inside diameter of port. bTees, side outlet tees, and crosses. 16 in. and smaller, reducing on the outlet, have the same dimensions center to face, and face to face as straight size fittings corresponding to the size of the larger opening. Sizes 18 in. and larger, reducing on the.outlet, are made in two lengths, depending on the size of the outlet. Tees and crosses, reducing on run only, carry same dimensions center to face and face to face as a straight size fitting of the larger opening.

"Size of all fittings listed indicates nominal inside diameter of port. bReducing elbows and side outlet elbows carry same dimensions center to face as straight sizeelbows corresponding to the size of the larger opening. "Special degree elbows, ranging from 1 to 45 deg. inclusive, have the same center to face dimensions as given for 45 deg elbows and those over 45 deg and up to 90 deg, inclusive, shall have the same center to . face dimensions as given for 90 deg elbows. .The angle designation of an elbow is its deflection from straight line flow and is the angle between the flange faces. dSide outlet elbows shall have all openings on intersection center-lines.
