A client recently engaged our services to design hanger flanges to satisfy a prescribed load combination for each size. A hanger flange is a joint in a pipeline whose primary purpose is to react the axial load below the hanger flange into some structure (hence the term hanger). The requirements were that the design satisfy ASME BPV Section VIII – Div. 2 (primarily that the linearized stresses are within the allowables).
