B16.25 specifies what?

B16.25 specifies what?

• A. Weld end preparation
• B. Flange pressure classes
• C. Pipe schedule
• D. Reinforcement zone requirements

Answer: (A)

This item tests what ASME B16.25 defines for welding ends on piping components. B16.25 specifies the welding end preparation used on flanges and fittings so a proper butt-weld joint can be made, including details like the bevel and related end-face geometry that ensure consistent, sound welds between parts. The other topics lie in different standards: flange pressure classes are covered by ASME B16.5, pipe schedules by ASME B36.10/36.19, and reinforcement zone requirements are addressed in other design and welding standards rather than in B16.25.
