Connection Techno

This section provides a brief overview of the Connection Techno table.

The Connection Techno table is used to map the piping attributes to the weld attributes.

In Data Setup, this table should be assigned to the Connection Table item in the resource table of Piping/Tubing Specification Resources.

A typical Connection Table is shown as below:

Standard	Nominal Size	End Style	Rating	Wall Thickness	Outside Diameter	Material	Material Category	Type	Robustness	ProcessType	Regulation	Thickness	Title
