ASME VIII Div 1 Part UCL Welded Pressure Vessels Constructed of Material With

Corrosion Resistant Integral Cladding Weld Metal !verla" Cladding or With A##lied
Linings
The rules in Part UCL are applicable to pressure vessels or vessel parts that are constructed of
base material with corrosion resistant integral or weld metal overlay cladding and to vessels and
vessel parts that are fully or partially lined inside or outside with corrosion resistant plate, sheet,
or strip, attached by welding to the base plates before or after forming or to the shell, heads,
and other parts during or after assembly into the completed vessel.1 These rules shall be used
in conjunction with the general reuirements in !ubsection " and with the specific reuirements
in the applicable Parts of !ubsection #.
Methods of $a%rication
$essels and vessel parts of base material with corrosion resistant integral or weld metal overlay
cladding construction shall be fabricated by welding. Corrosion resistant linings may be attached
by welding to vessels fabricated by any method of construction permitted under the rules of this
section.
Conditions of Service
!pecific chemical compositions, heat treatment procedures, fabrication reuirements, and
supplementary tests may be reuired to assure that the vessel will be suitable for the intended
service. This is particularly true for vessels subject to severe corrosive conditions, and also
those vessels operating in a cyclic temperature service. These rules do not indicate the
selection of an alloy suitable for the intended service or the amount of the corrosion allowance
to be provided. !ee also informative and nonmandatory guidance regarding metallurgical
phenomena in "ppendi% & of !ection '', Part (.
't is recommended that users assure themselves by appropriate tests, or otherwise, that the
alloy material selected and its heat treatment during fabrication will be suitable for the intended
service.
NOTE: Attention is called to the difficulties that have been experienced in welding materials
differing greatly in chemical composition.
)i%tures of uncertain chemical composition and physical properties are produced at the line of
fusion. !ome of these mi%tures are brittle and may give rise to crac*s during solidification or
afterward. To avoid weld embrittlement, special care is reuired in the selection of lining
material and welding electrodes, and in the application of controls over the welding process and
other fabrication procedures.
Materials
The base materials used in the construction of clad vessels and of those having applied
corrosion linings shall comply with the reuirements for materials given in UC!+,, U-+,, U.T+,,
or UL/+,.
'ntegral and /eld )etal 0verlay Clad )aterial
1a2 Clad material used in constructions in which the design calculations are based on the total
thic*ness including cladding 3see UCL+451c26 shall conform to one of the following specifications7
!"+4&5, Corrosion+8esisting Chromium9!teel Clad
Plate, !heet and !trip !"+4&:, Corrosion+8esisting Chromium9;ic*el !teel Clad Plate,
!heet and !trip
!"+4&,, ;ic*el and ;ic*el9#ase "lloy Clad !teel Plate.
'n addition to the above, weld metal overlay cladding may be used as defined in this Part.
1b2 #ase material with corrosion resistant integral or weld metal overlay cladding used in
constructions in which the design calculations are based on the base material thic*ness,
e%clusive of the thic*ness of the cladding material, may consist of any base material satisfying
the reuirements of UCL+1< and any metallic corrosion resistant integral or weld metal overlay
cladding material of weldable uality that in the judgment of the user is suitable for the intended
service.
1c2 #ase material with corrosion resistant integral cladding in which any part of the cladding is
included in the design calculations, as permitted in UCL+451c2, shall show a minimum shear
strength of 4<,<<< psi 115= )Pa2 when tested in the manner described in the clad plate
specification. 0ne shear test shall be made on each such clad plate as rolled, and the results
shall be reported on the certified material test report.
/hen the composite thic*ness of the clad material is 5>: in. 11? mm2 or less, and@or when the
cladding metal thic*ness is nominally <.<A, in. 11.? mm2 or less, the B#ond !trengthC test, as
described in !"+4&5, !"+4&:, or !"+4&,, may be used in lieu of the bond B!hear !trengthC test
to fulfill the criteria for acceptable minimum shear strength, e%cept that the bend test specimen
shall be 11>4 in. 15= mm2 wide by not more than 5>: in. 11? mm2 in thic*ness and shall be bent,
at room temperature, through an angle of 1=< deg to the bend diameter provided for in the
material specifications applicable to the bac*ing metal. The results of the B#ond !trengthC test
shall be reported on the certified material test report.
1d2 " shear or bond strength test is not reuired for weld metal overlay cladding.
1e2 /hen any part of the cladding thic*ness is specified as an allowance for corrosion, such
added thic*ness shall be removed before mill tension tests are made.
/hen corrosion of the cladding is not e%pected, no part of the cladding need be removed before
testing, even though e%cess thic*ness seems to have been provided or is available as corrosion
allowance.
Lining
)aterial used for applied corrosion resistant lining may be any metallic material of weldable
uality that in the judgment of the user is suitable for the intended purpose.
