Description
This document provides a systematic procedure for selecting construction materials suitable for chemical and hydrocarbon processing plants. The document features tables listing the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) product form specifications for construction materials with code-allowable design stresses. The document also analyzes threshold values for degradation phenomena involving thermal damage.
Describes the systematic procedure for using process and mechanical design information to select construction materials suitable for a range of chemical and hydrocarbon processing plants. The volume features tables for locating the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) product form specifications for construction materials that have code-allowable design stresses. It analyzes threshold values for degradation phenomena involving thermal damage.
