 HEAD THICKNESS

• Head thickness
• Semi-elliptical UG-32

• Flat head UG-34(C)(2)

• Ref. UG-32, UG-33, UG-34, UG-46 & App. 1-4

• Semi- spherical, tori-sphere, cone is rarely used
 SHELL THICKNESS

• Shell thickness
• Cylindrical shell UG-27

• Conical shell
• Ref. UG-27, UG-32, App. 1-4
 HYDROSTATIC TEST

• UG-99(b)
Hydrostatic test = 1.3 x MAWP x St/Sd
