Create Flange Connections to Equipment with Flange-FLOCs. Flange FLOCs are Level 5 FLOCs.
Create Flange and Clamp (Grayloc) Equipment containing:
Tightening data and recommended specification.
Flange integrity calculations.
Schedule.
Create Jobs, which can include Flanges and/or Clamps.
Record your activities in Equipment Condition Histories (ECH).
