This document discusses various piping elements including pipes, fittings, flanges, and gaskets. It describes the different types of pipes based on their manufacturing process and materials. Various pipe fitting types like elbows, tees, and reducers are also defined. Considerations for material selection of piping systems like strength, corrosion resistance, toughness, fabricability, and cost are summarized. Standards for pipe fittings and classifications of flanges are also provided.
