Hydrotest Allowable Stress
Hydrotest Allowable Stress
(OP)
I see that PV Elite Please uses 1.3 times the ambient allowable stress of the material for allowable hydrotest stress. What is this based on? Is this method mentioned in ASME Section VIII, Division 1?
I cannot seem to find how they came up with this idea. Please provide a short answer if you understand where this calculation of the hydrotest allowable stress come from.
Thanks.
