MAWP & Static Pressure
MAWP & Static Pressure
(OP)
Regarding pressure vessels intended to be designed per ASME Code Section VIII, Division 1, I have seen calculations produced by various fabricators that included static pressure and some that do not. Which is correct?

RE: MAWP & Static Pressure
In some cases, the loadings of UG-22 could be negligible in comparison to internal pressure.
The part on determining minimum wall thickness under internal pressure (UG-27) also requires the designer to take into account loadings from UG-22.
