ASME Section VIII Div 1 paragraph UG-16(c)

ASME Section VIII Div 1 paragraph UG-16(c)

ASME Section VIII Div 1 paragraph UG-16(c)

(OP)
Can someone provide a plain English interpretation of this paragraph?

RE: ASME Section VIII Div 1 paragraph UG-16(c)

Here is a sample scenario:

Minimum calculated design thickness = 0.2498 in

Ordered material thickness = 1/4 in = 0.2500 in

Received material thickness = 0.2410 in

0.06 * 0.2500 = 0.0150 in > 0.0100 (controls)

Minimum acceptable thickness = 0.2500 - 0.0100 = 0.2400 in < 0.2410 in

Therefore the material is usable.
