Dear Experts,

Greetings of the day.

In one of our project order design code is ASME Sec. VIII Div. 2. Is simulation required for all materials like plate, pipes, forgings, fittings as per Part 3.10 of ASME Sec. VIII Div. 2. Vessels are to be PWHT by client requirement not code requirement.

Please send me an interpretation/ understanding of Part No. 3.10 of ASME Sec. VIII Div. 2.

Thanks to all in advance.

With warm regards,

C. R. GANDHI

Hi,

SPWHT is mandatory for non standard forgings and plates. For standard products it is always a topic of argument with client. If you read 3.10 thoroughly for standard items like elbow, pipes and flanges it is not required. But if you think out of the box, if plate requires why not for other products? the main idea behind it is to check material properties after heat treatment. So client may insist for all the materials involved.
