[MW:29073] Hardness for SA516 Grade 70

For a pressure vessel designed with stamped under ASME VIII Div.1, there is a requirement that: "Hardness values should not exceed 200 brinell for the welds / material of shell."


Shell material is specified as SA516 Grade 70.


I am concerned the requirements for hardness and material will automatically require stress relief for all pressure vessel parts.


Would SA516 Grade 70 have hardness lower than 200 Brinell?


Thank you.


Regards,

RKD
