SnTMan, thanks for your reply, really helpful.
I'm still trying to understand why the calculated value seems different from the tabulated one even if the criteria should be the same.
B7M tabulate value (allowable) is 138MPa (20'000 psi)
B7M calculated value (allowable) 172.5MPa (20'000 psi)...
Hi everyone I'm new on this thread.
Thanks in advance to all people who will give me their valuable feedback.
Regarding allowable stresses stated in ASME II Part D 2021 Edition,
I'm trying to understand when values tabulated into tables shall be used and when it is possible to calculate values...
