4. MAJOR ISSUES AND DATES

• Resolving proposed Annex C and H revisions.

5. FUTURE WORK PROGRAM

Resolving potential Errata or Addendum revisions is the future work program. The proposed Annex H revisions have already been worked by members of the Annex H Work Group, and the proposed changes are ready for the broader 17G community’s review. An Errata could likely handle the proposed Annex “H” revisions.

The bulk of the work effort will be to resolve two potential “Annex C” revisions. • Currently, Annex “C” identifies three elastic- methods. The current document leaves it to the designer to choose which way to use. There is published work that demonstrated the benefits of using the yielding load method to determine the bending moment capacity for connectors. The future revision work will be to resolve the question if better guidance is required to determine which design method to use. • The requirements in C.5.3.3.2 may be written incorrectly. The proposed resolution is to reword the criteria to match the ASME VIII DIV 3 KD-247 requirement, as was initially included in the ballot draft 3945 from 2017.

6. FUTURE MEETINGS DATES

The 17G meeting cadence will be aligned with the 17G1 activities. The tentative plan is to schedule a meeting in August 2020 to begin discussing the identified Annex “C” revisions and to review the proposed final changes for Annex “H.”

7. RESOURCE NEEDS

Chairman succession plan. I plan to step down as soon as a successor is identified.
