In API 3.6.2.1 it says that the maximum product design stress Sd is found in table 3.2. But then it says that Sd given by a different name "design stress basis" is arrived at via a calculation that (for A36 at least) comes out higher than the table 3.2. What is the definition of "design stress basis" and which Sd does one use?
