Just to clarify my understanding, when ASME updated the code on hydrotest pressure ratio to specify the minimum requirement of 1.3 what was the logic behind selecting 1.3 as the ratio, i recognise this is the minimum requirement and also that no upper limit for hydro is advised but what precludes or not if the case may be, one from simply maintaining 1.5 as a ratio, do we have to prove or complete additional calculations to use a ratio of 1.5?
