We simplify the specification of the Standard EN1591 as follows: - we use a specific flange type: Welding-neck flange with cylindrical tube - we use only three operating states I: I=0: mounting state (or installed condition) I=1: testing state I=2: charge state - we use a specific mounting method: screw tightening method = measurement of torque (torsional, turning moment) - systematic error induced by the inaccuracy of the screw tightening is unknown - we ignore external forces and moments - we do not use washers - we use the k_B approximation in D.5
