Allowable Stress
Allowable Stress
(OP)
Hi all
In designing a vessel or a boiler, which stress is used? Yield Stress or Ultimate Tensile Strength?
Someone told me ASME code uses both which makes me even more confuse.
Thanks for your help.

RE: Allowable Stress
From your recent posts here on ET it appears you have very limited understanding of ASME B&PV Code. My tip to you is to inquire about attending ASME classes to become exposed to what ASME B&PV Code is all about. For you to review Section IX, Section II, Part D, Section VIII or even Section I on your own will be difficult to do.
