The existing tables giving “m and y” values, used in the Taylor Forge method for bolted flange connections calculation, have remained unchanged through years. Some gasket types do not appear in these tables and no reference is made to a Tightness Class associated to these values. The need for an update of the exiting tables has been raised by the supplier of French codes (CODAP® [1] and CODETI® [2]).
