LOADINGS (UG-22)
The Loadings to be considered in designing a Vessel shall include those from:
a Internal or External Design Pressure (as defined in UG-21) Design Pressure Conditions as per Data Sheet
(Also consider Pressure Drop through Internals and
Vapor Static Head ; simply add these in D.P.)
b Weight of the Vessel and normal contents under operating Liquid Pressure (Model Liquid Level with liquid
or test conditions (this includes additional Pressure due to specific gravity)
static head of liquids)
e Cyclic and dynamic reactions due to pressure or thermal Model Cyclic Loading
variations, or from equipment mounted on a vessel, and
mechanical loading
3) Snow if applicable
g Impact reactions such as those due to fluid shock Model Impact reactions if applicable
h Temperature gradients and differential thermal expansion Model Temperature Gradient if applicable
I abnormal pressure, such as those caused by deflagration Model abnormal pressure if applicable

Note: 2 The minimum thickness of these loose flanges,in sizes NPS 3 1/2" and smaller,is slightly greater than the thickness of flanges on fittings, Table 9,which are
reinforced by being cast integral with the body of fitting.
Note: 3 These flanges may be supplied with a flat face. The flat face may be either the full tf dimension of thickness plus 2mm, or the tf dimension thickness without
the raised face height. See para 6.3.2 for additional restrictions.
Note: 4 The flange dimension illustrated are for regularly furnished 2 mm raised face (except lapped); for requirements of other facings see Fig.7.
Note: 6 For thread of threaded flanges, see para 6.9.
Note: 7 Dimension in column 13 correspond to the inside diameter of pipe as given in ASME B36.10M for standard wall pipe. Thickness of standard wall is the same
as Schedule 40 in sizes NPS 10 and smaller. Tolerances in para 7.5.2 apply. These bore sizes are furnished unless otherwise specified by the Purchaser.
