To control flexibility: increase diameter.

Soil corrosion: oxygen content
Piping class1,2,3: Intervals & examples mentioned in the code very
important
As inspector, if you see SMAW vertical downhill process: you will
accept because progression in SMAW is non-essential variable.
Type of non-metallic excluded from api574: Polyethylene
CUI: localized corrosion for c/s Temperature limitation for carbon steel and
300 s/s
E7018 : low hydrogen electrode
Remaining life & short term CR & long term CR: important
Hot spots (RP 574): Open book question about internally insulted piping.
Increasing the as-measured ultrasonic thickness by a factor of 1
%/100 F (1 %/55 C).
Flanges inspection: in RP 574, page 61
Valve inspection :API 598
Flange fastener: no thread outside
Hydro test : question based on acceptance criteria for the test result
Holiday test for coating : for evaluate coating serviceability
Minimum required thick: larger of the pressure design thickness or
structural minimum thickness
RP 578: portable X-ray fluorescence used for ( 5 Cr 12 Mo steel)
Inspector and owner have to create schedule for
changing the PMI faults.
Low likelihood of inadvertent Substitution in larg
diameter piping
