Studded Outlet - Flange

Flange Dimensions
Weld 42: The weld leg of the studded outlet perimeter weld.
Weld 44: The weld leg of the studded outlet weld at the finished opening of the host. This field is only available for the set-on configuration.
Groove Depth: This is the groove weld depth between the outer periphery of the studded outlet and the host wall. It is assumed to be full penetration and is locked to the thickness of the host wall. This is only available for the set-in configuration.
Diameter of Reinforcement: The limit of reinforcement measured parallel to the studded outlet axis. This is a calculated value determined per UG-40(b). The result may be reduced by the user, but it may not be increased beyond what is calculated per UG-40(b). Reducing the value results in a lower available area in the reinforcement calculations and makes meeting UG-37 reinforcement requirements more difficult. For example, openings in close proximity may not have overlapping limits of reinforcement, so the code would require a reduction in this value and would thereby increase the difficulty of meeting UG-37 requirements. See UG-42 for more information.
