Thanks. Understood that the min require for ASME Sec VIII Div 1 is 1.3*MAWP*LSR .
I was told that if we use 1.5 X MAWP , it will exceed the yield strength of the material which is not advisable. Please advise if my explanation is correct?

Darren

There is generally a minimum test pressure (mandated by the Code) and a maximum test pressure that would cause permanent damage.
