The reinforcement area shall be the sum of the followrng
two areas. 1. The area lying within the reinforcement zone [defined in 304.3.3 (d)l resulting from any excess thickness available in the main run pipe wall and branch pipe wall over that required by the proper wall thickness equations, i.e., the thicknesses Tr - - - tn c and T6 - to c multiplied by appropriate lengths. Any line having a thickness greater than that required for corrosion allowance and for pressure and other loading considerations will occasionally be in service until the excess thickness is also corroded away. If this is the basis of the design, the excess thickness cannot be used for reinforcement of pipe+o-pipe branch connections. 2. The area ofall other metal within the reinforcement zone (defined in Section 304.3.3 (d) provided by weld and other reinforcement metal properly attached to the run of branch. In computing areas of weld metal deposits, the minimum dimensions required shall be used unless a definite procedure is employed to instruct the welder to provide specific larger dimensions, in which case lhe latter dimensions may be used in calculations. Fortions of the reinforcement area may be composed of materials other than those of the main run pipe, but if the allowable stress of these materials is less than that for the
