As per UW40 (a)(4), when PWHT by internal firing method the internal pressure should be kept as low as practicable, but shall not exceed 50% of the maximum allowable working pressure at the highest metal temperature expected during the postweld heat treatment period.

How to calculate MAWP at PWHT temp (~ 600°C) since allowable stress for SA 516 Gr. 70 is available upto 524°C only.
