ASME BPV Sec VIII div1
Subject: UHA-51(c) (1), impact testing required for Austenitic stainless steels thermally treated between 480 0C – 900 0C
Back Ground: A vessel dished end (welded) subjected to solution annealing (PFHT) at temperature 1040 0C; MOC-304 and MDMT -0.7 0C
Question (1): Does this condition exempted from impact testing, if so why? Since it not within the temperature range specified (i.e. between 480 0C – 900 0C)
Thanking You & Best Regards
