The passage discusses reinforcement requirements for openings in flat heads according to ASME VIII Division 1 UG-39.

The two types of reinforcement that can be provided are individual reinforcement (Type-1) and increasing the total thickness of the flat head (Type-2).

Individual reinforcement must meet requirements for reinforcement area, location and spacing between openings according to diagrams and formulas given.

FLAT HEAD OPENING REINFORCEMENT-UG39 OF SEC VIII DIV 1

A) THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONAL OPENINGS IN FLATHEAD DO NOT REQUIRE


REINFORCEMENT: (UG-36 C 3)
1. FINISHED OPENING FOR WELDED CONNECTIONS HAVING 3 ½ “ DIAMETER –
IN HEADS 10mm OR LESS IN THICKNESS
FINISHED OPENING FOR WELDED CONNECTIONS HAVING 2 3/8” DIAMETER –
IN HEADS OVER 10mm THICKNESS
2. NO TWO ISOLATED UNREINFORCED ABOVE SAID OPENINGS SHALL HAVE
THEIR CENTERS CLOSER TO EACH OTHER THAN SUM OF THEIR DIAMETERS.
3. NO TWO UNREINFORCED OPENINGS, IN A CLUSTER OF THREE OR MORE
UNREIFORCED OPENINGS IN ACCORDENCE WITH ABOVE 1,SHALL HAVE THEIR
CENTERS CLOSER TO EACH OTHER THAN 2.5 *(d1+d2), WHERE d1 & d2 ARE
FINISHED OPENINGS OF TWOADJACENT OPENINGS.

FINISHED OPENINGS HAVING DIAMETER MORE THAN STATED AS ABOVE SHALL


BE REINFORCED AS STATED IN ATTACHMENT 1 & 2.
THE REINFORCEMENT CAN BE GIVEN IN TWO WAYS.
1.INDIVIDUAL REINFORCEMENT (TYPE –1: REFER ATTACHMENT 1)
2. INCREASING TOTAL FLAT HEAD THICKNESS. (TYPE –2: REFER ATTACHMENT 2).
ATTACHMENT 1.: Individual Reinforcement
