MINIMUM BODY WALL THICKNESS
t = 1.5[Pcd/(2S -1.2Pc)] + A
t = calculated thickness, in
Pc = pressure rating class designation (150, 300,
600, etc.)
d = inside diameter or port opening as defined in
6.1.2
S = 7000 psi constant
A = additional allowance

RATING HISTORY
ASME B16.34-2009
STANDARD CLASS P/T EQUATION
pst = S1Pr/8750 pca
pst = Standard Class rated working pressure (psi) for the
specified material at temperature T
Pr = pressure rating class index-Class 300, 600, 1500, etc.
pca = ceiling pressure (psi), at temperature T for Standard
Class from table B-3, Standard Class, of B16.34.
S1 = selected stress (psi) for the specified material at
temperature T.
ASME B16.34-2009
SPECIAL CLASS P/T EQUATION
psp = S2Pr/7000 pcb
pld = Limited Class rated working pressure for the specified material at a
temperature T > 900F
Pr = pressure class rating index-Special Class 300, 600, 1500, etc.
psp = Special class rated working pressure for the specified material at
temperature T
y = a material coefficient having values as listed below:
Y = 0.4 to 0.7 for ferritic steel from 950F to 1500F
Y= 0.4 to 0.7 for austenitic steel from 950F to 1500F
