1. Determine/suggest the materials use.

Carbon Steel SA-516 Grade 60 because of its offers a greater Yield and Tensile
strength when compared to ASTM A516 Grade 65 and can operate in lower
temperatures. ASTM A516 Grade 60 is a boiler pressure vessel quality steel that
has good weld- ability and excellent notch toughness and is perfect for moderate
and lower temperature services. ASTM A516 Grade 60 also has a high
atmospheric corrosion resistance and the price are more reasonable than stainless
steel.
The mechanical properties of ASTM A516 Grade 60 and ASME SA516 Grade 60
carbon steel plate are outlined in table 1.

UG-23 MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE STRESS

VALUES
(a) The maximum allowable stress value is the maximum unit stress permitted in a
given material used in a vessel constructed under these rules. The maximum
allowable tensile stress values permitted for different materials are given in
Subpart 1 of Section II, Part D. Section II, Part D is published as two separate
publications. One publication contains values only in the U.S. Customary units
and the other contains values only in SI units. The selection of the version to use
is dependent on the set of units selected for construction. A listing of these
materials is given in the following tables, which are included in Subsection C. For
material identified as meeting more than one material specification and/or grade,
the maximum allowable tensile stress value for either material specification and/or
grade may be used provided all requirements and limitations for the material
specification and grade are met for the maximum allowable tensile stress value
chosen.
27-5 HEAT TREATMENT OF TEST
SPECIMENS
(a) Except when impact testing per UCS-66 is required, and in lieu of the
requirements of UCS-85, the plate, forging, pipe, and strip steels used in the
production of glasslined vessels may be represented by test specimens that meet
the following requirements:
(2) the materials shall be limited to SA-106, SA-285, SA-414, SA-516, and SA-
836; and
(3) the multiple temperature cycles used in the glassing operation shall be within
the range of 1450F to 1700F (790C to 925C), with at least one cycle being
above the upper transformation temperature of the material. The vessel is to be
held at temperature approximately 1/2 hr/in. (1/2 hr/25 mm) of thickness, and
stillaircooled to ambient.
