david339933, The shell (1/2") does not require impact by UCS-66. However, the head (1") does require impact test by UCS-66, but does not require impact test to the governing thickness (1/2"). In this case, is it necessary the impact test in the WPS qualification?
Perhaps the problem is my...
david339933, Is true that, based in the governing thickness, the impact test are not required in the WPS qualification. However, the shell require impact test by design and UCS-67(a)(1) say that "impact test are required when either base metal is required to be impact tested by the rules of this...
The answer is easy. The thickness are defined by design. The ASME requirements are minimum requirements. However, this is not the main question. I can see that you dont understand the question, which is regarding to the impact test in the WPS qualification. Moreover, your answer about impact...
Hello
I need your help to solve a discussion. I am working in the fabrication of a pressure vessel under ASME VIII Division 1. The cylindrical shell have a thickness (1/2 in.) and material that not require impact test by UCS-66. However the hemispherical head have a thickness (1 in.) that...
