ASME VIII Div 1 Design by Analysis
ASME VIII Div 1 Design by Analysis
(OP)
Under what conditions may the Design by Analysis Requirements in Part 5 of Section VIII Division 2 be used to design components for a Section VIII Division 1 Pressure Vessel?





RE: ASME VIII Div 1 Design by Analysis
What that means is that if there is a rule in Div. 1, you MUST follow it. If there is a specific prohibition, then you can't do an end-run around it. But, if there are no rules, then you're pretty much wide open.
Note that if you perform a Design By Analysis using Part 5 of Div. 2, you will need to use either the allowable stresses from Div. 1 (for an elastic analysis) or appropriate factors (for an inelastic analysis). (Note that the appropriate factors are not currently provided, but you would be well advised to check with Annex B of ASME FFS-1 for applicable/appropriate factors).
Does this make sense?
