There is no ASME nameplate on the tanks.
I was hired only to perform ultrasonic thickness testing of the compressors and compare to original thickness.
I'll look into the NBIC "R" repair organization and for someone to perform the calculations
Thanks to all for your help.
There are no original fabrication drawings
No MDR
I only have present day UT readings for the shell and heads for each compressor.
Looks like performing calcs.
Do you know someone that would be interested in doing this?
I'm an environmental engineer P.E., not a mechanical engineer!!

I am presently inspecting a number of old in-service air compressor tanks that I need to compare measured UT readings for the shell and heads against allowable thickness.
For example,
350psi, 2.67ft diameter, 7.1 feet long, 235 gallons...
