Tool #	Description	Cat.
BFJ#T1	Torque Calculation Spreadsheet BFJ#T1 - Torque Calculation Spreadsheet Is an excel spreadsheet for calculating the required torque for a given bolt load or stress. It will also allow calculation of the required bolt stress to obtain a given gasket stress for input gasket dimensions. Close	Free
BFJ#T2	PCC-1-2010 Appendix O Flange Limit Tables BFJ#T2 - PCC-1-2010 Appendix O Flange Limit Tables Is an excel spreadsheet with all of the reference tables from PCC-1-2010 Appendix O for determining optimal assembly bolt stress. Close	Free
BFJ#T3	PCC-1-2010 Appendix O Flange Limit Tables - Extended Version BFJ#T3 - PCC-1-2010 Appendix O Flange Limit Tables - Extended Version Is an excel spreadsheet that contains PCC-1-2010 Appendix O tables for determining optimal assembly bolt stress, but the tables are extended to include all sizes and classes of both B16.5 and B16.47. In addition, updates of the PCC-1-2010 tables are provided. Close	Memb
BFJ#T4	Joint Turn-of-Nut Calculation Spreadsheet BFJ#T4 - Joint Turn-of-Nut Calculation Spreadsheet Is an excel spreadsheet that contains calculations to determine the amount of nut turn required to achieve a given increase in gasket or bolt stress. Close	Memb
BFJ#T5	PCC-1-2010 Appendix O Assembly Bolt Stress Selection Spreadsheet BFJ#T5 - PCC-1-2010 Appendix O Assembly Bolt Stress Selection Spreadsheet Is an excel spreadsheet that contains calculations to for determining the optimal assembly bolt stress using the method outlined in Appendix O of PCC-1-2010. Also includes other effects not covered in Appendix O. For full understanding, it is recommended that the advanced BFJ course be taken. Close	Memb
BFJ#T6	WRC 538 Flange Limit Calculation Spreadsheet BFJ#T6 - WRC 538 Flange Limit Calculation Spreadsheet Is an excel spreadsheet that contains calculations to for determining the the strength of a weldneck flange in accordance with the method outlined in Welding Research Council bulletin 538. It is recommended that the Advanced Training course be taken to provide background on how to use this spreadsheet. Close	Memb
BFJ#T7	PCC-1-2010 Appendix O Gasket Stress Limits Suggestions BFJ#T7 - PCC-1-2010 Appendix O Gasket Stress Limits Suggestions Is an excel spreadsheet that contains suggestions for appropriate values to be used for gasket limits for the calculations outlined in PCC-1-2010 Appendix O. This spreadsheet is only available to people who have taken the Advanced Training Course, since it is essential that the method and limits are fully understood. Close	Adv
BFJ#T8	Extended Torque Calculation Spreadsheet BFJ#T8 - Extended Torque Calculation Spreadsheet Is an excel spreadsheet for calculating the required torque for a given bolt load or stress. It will also allow calculation of the required bolt stress to obtain a given gasket stress for input gasket dimensions. It will also allow calculation of the required bolt stress to obtain a given gasket stress for input or stored standard B16.5 gasket dimensions. Close	Memb
