Description / Abstract: INTRODUCTION

This study investigated the impact test exemption curves of ASME Section VIII, UCS-66, with the objective of extending them to thicknesses representative of piping components. Specifically, the purposes of the investigation included:
  • Extension of the curves (particularly Curves for material groups A and B) to lower temperatures and to thicknesses less than 0.394 inches
  • To understand the technical and historical origin of these curves
  • To expand in a more systematic and complete way the several exceptions to these curves, namely UCS-66(d) and UG-20(f)
  • Evaluation of data and history in light of modern steel production methods, which produce materials that are less prone to low temperature failures.
