the equipment is intended. The value of design pressure considers static pressure and
dynamic loads of the working medium, increase of pressure due to instability of working

value separately, or the pressure which requires larger thickness of the wall of equipment

level;
e) modulus of elongation (Young modulus) at normal and design temperatures;
f) the values of plastic deformation at the rupture of standard samples;

Equipment elements working under external pressure or those exposed to compression stress from
other loads shall be checked for form stability.

the course of equipment operation, allowed inaccuracies of manufacture (fabrication), and possible
deviations of mechanical characteristics of applied materials.

loads is determined according to following formulas:
a) For plastic carbonaceous and low-alloy, ferritic, austenitic-ferritic- martensite steels and
nickel-iron-based alloys:
,
where:
is allowed pressure at strength calculation by maximum loads of the equipment operating
under static loads;
Re/t is the minimum value of yield point at the maximum allowed temperature;
25
CU 032/2013
RP0,2/t is the minimum value of offset yield strength at 0,2 percent of residual deformation and
maximum allowed temperature;
Rm is the minimum value of ultimate strength at the
R m/10n n

temperature;
R P1/10n
is the average value of 1 percent creep strength during 10n hours at maximum
allowed temperature;
b) For austenitic chrome-nickel steels, aluminum, copper and their alloys:
R P1/t R m/t R m/10n R P1/10n

= min ; ; ;
1,5 3 1,5 1
,
where:
RP1/t is the minimum value of offset yield strength at 1 percent of residual deformation and
maximum allowed temperature;
Rm/t is the minimum value of ultimate strength at maximum allowed temperature;
c) for aluminum cast alloys:
R m/t
=
7 ;
d) for the titan and titanic alloys:
R m/t
=
3 ;
e) for rolled sheet and rolled pipes from the titan and titanic alloys:
R m/t
=
2,6 .
22. It is allowed to determine the allowed pressure for austenitic steels by the following formula:
R P0,2/t
=
1,3 .
23. For steel castings, the value of allowed pressure determined by the formulas specified in items 21
and 22 of the present requirements, are multiplied by 0,8 if the casting have passed continuous
non-destructive testing, or by 0,7 if the castings have not passed continuous non-destructive
testing.
24. When there is no data about yield point and long-term strength for aluminum, copper and their
alloys, allowed pressure is determined by the following formula:
R m/t
=
3,5 .
