RE: Code Case 1205
Reply: The requirements of UG-99(b) call for the minimum hydrostatic test pressure to be 1 1/2 MAWP multiplied by the lowest ratio of stress values.
The requirements of UG-99(b), however, do say that Section VIII, Division 1 does not specify an upper limit for hydrostatic test pressure.
Appears that this Code Case was incorporated into Sect VIII, and additionally the hydro pressure is no longer 1.5 times design. Code Case is irrelevant today.
