Re: [MW:29084] Hardness for SA516 Grade 70

This 200HB is only mentioned as in delivery condition, not in as welded condition.

As welded hardness depends on chemistry and cooling rate (e.g preheat, heat-input, wall thickness)

I was looking for that data in the Code, I could not find it, hopefully someone has better luck and share the hardness data of this steel, with reference to the standard; On the other hand, when a pressure vessel carries the ASME stamp, the Authorized Inspector of the Authorized Inspection Agency necessarily has to intervene with your company has a contract, the Authorized Inspector has the obligation to advise and give you technical support.

PWHT is followed spec, and WPS should be shown hardness test value.

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
