Allowable Stress for A312 S31254
Allowable Stress for A312 S31254
(OP)
I am starting a flexibility study for some piping designed to B31.3. The pipe material is A312 S31254 and I don't think it is listed in B31.3. I found some general properties of this material but no reference for temperature dependent allowable stress and thermal expansion coefficient that I could use in a program like CAESAR.
Any suggestions where to get this info? I have requested this from the client but they are not able to provide.

It looks like this is not a code material. The material supplier would be the best source... many found on a google search.

thanks for the help, I'll have a look in ASME II

I am surprised to hear that this material is not listed the caesar database, but in any case I suggest you to visit the Coade website and from the pull down menu, enter the Support tab and select the Discussions Forum, register with them and place a post there regarding this topic. You'll have the best feed back directly from the horse's mouth. Most likely they'll show you how to develop your own database on Caesar.

I was able to find another user some other contacts that have this material entered into their database. I have attached it if anyone else is interested.
