code cover those for pipe, flanges, bolting, gaskets, valves, relief devices, fittings, and
the pressure-containing portions of other piping components. It also includes hangers
and supports and other equipment items necessary to prevent overstressing the
pressure-containing components.
The loadings required to be considered are pressure; weight (live, dead, and
under test loads); impact (e.g., water hammer); wind; earthquake (where
applicable); vibration; and those loadings resulting from thermal expansion and
contraction.

The design equations and stress limits are as follows (terms are the same as those
for Class 2 and 3 piping except for those defined below):
1. Stress due to sustained loads. The effects of pressure, weight, and other sustained
mechanical loads must meet the requirements of Eq. (B4.25):
