Code ASME Section VIII Div 1 talks the following tolerances:
1. shell/head ovality. as per UG 80/81
2. Fit up tolerances as per UW33
3. Weld reinforcement tolerances as per UW 35.
You need to assess the acceptance of tank/vessel based on the above tolerances.
Please give the design parameters of the vessel ( shell dia/thick/internal pressure/external pressure etc). in order to assess the vessel

Hi,
We have procured a Stainless Steel tank from one of our sub contrators. The thickness of the plate is 6mm. They have done hydrotest also. The tank is shifted to our Project site from the Sub contractors yard. We observed a distortion of 3mm near a Longitudinal seam (Both side of the weld seam).
I would like to know the allowable tolerance limit for distortion. Is 3mm acceptable? If it is so please give me the code reference.
We observed a Grinding mark of 0.5 mm depth on 6mm thick Shell. what is the allowable limit for this? Is there any code reference?
Your early response in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Regards
Prabhakar. S

If you want help, help other,
If you want trust, trust others,
If you want Love, spread it away,
If you want friends, be a True one.
If you want a great TEAM, Be a Great TEAMMATE.
Teamwork is less "EGO" and more "We Go"
The great Companies and Teams are those,
That share the similarities,
and celebrate the differences.
They seek harmony, not uniformity.
They hire Talent, not Color or Caste.
They strive for oneness, not sameness.
No one goes alone to the height of Excellence.
Your Success will depend on others,
And theirs will depend on You.
Remember, the meaning of Team is
T : Together
E: Everyone
A: Achieves
M : More
