RE: Different Disgn & Inspection Codes
You didn't give much details so I have to guess at what you got. I don't know what you mean by the grid of a heater is but what your client is expecting is he wants a detail stress analysis done on the shell and supports for your grid, and you are to "reference" Div2, appendix 4 to categorize the different stress values. I assume it must be a Div 1 vessel so naturally it has to be designed and fab per Div. 1.
When in doubt, ask your client directly for clarification. Don't second guess a Client's requirement.
