    General Fabrication Requirements

    This document outlines fabrication requirements for cutting plates, forming shell sections and heads, permissible out-of-roundness for cylindrical shells, and tolerances for formed heads and attaching lugs and fittings. It specifies that plates can be cut using mechanical, oxygen, or arc cutting methods and slag must be removed, and that edges may be chamfered or rounded. Shells and heads must be formed without impairing material properties and adjoining edges may need preliminary rolling. Shell out-of-roundness is limited to 1% of diameter with some allowance for openings. Head surfaces cannot deviate more than specified amounts from the design shape.

    General Fabrication

    Requirements
    Cutting Plates and Other Stock
    UG-76(a) Plates, edges of heads and other parts may be cut to
    shape to size by:
    1. mechanical means
    2. oxygen cutting
    3. arc cutting
    After oxygen or arc cutting, all slag and detrimental
    discoloration of material which has been molten shall be
    removed by mechanical means prior to further fabrication.
    UG-76(b) Ends of nozzles or manhole necks which are to
    remain unwelded in the finished vessel may be cut by shearing
    provided sufficient additional material is removed by any
    method that provides a smooth surface.                                     
        
    UG-76 (c)
    Exposed inside edges shall be chamfered or rounded.
    Forming Shell Sections & Heads
    UG-79(a) All plates for shell sections and for heads shall be
    formed to the required shape by any process that will not
    impair the physical properties of the material. Limits are
    provided on cold working of all carbon and low alloy steel,
    [see UCS 79(d)]
    UG-79(b) If the plates are to be rolled, the adjoining edges of
    longitudinal joints of cylindrical vessels shall first be shaped
    to the proper curvature by preliminary rolling in order to
    avoid objectionable flat spots.
    Forming Shell Sections & Heads

    Plate - As rolled condition Original center line radius (infinity)

    Outer surface in
    tension double curvature (heads)

    where
    t = plate thickness
    Final center Inner surface in Rf= final center line
    line radius compression radius
    Ro = original center line
    radius (∞ for flat plate)
    Forming Shell Sections & Heads
    Permissible Out-Of-Roundness Of
    Cylindrical, Conical and Spherical Shells
    UG 80(a) Internal Pressure - The shell of a completed vessel
    shall be substantially round and shall meet the following
    requirements:
    (a)(1) The difference between the
    maximum and minimum inside
    diameters at any cross section
    shall not exceed 1% of the nominal
    diameter at the cross section under
    consideration.
    Example: 24 inch I. D. The diameters may be measured
    shell x 1% tolerance
    724 Inch permitted on the inside or outside of the
    deviation vessel. If measured on the outside,
    the diameters shall be corrected for
    the plate thickness at the cross
    section under consideration.
    Permissible Out-Of-Roundness Of
    Cylindrical, Conical and Spherical Shells
    UG-80(a)(2) When the cross section passes through an
    opening or within 11.D. of the opening measured from the
    center of the opening, the permissible difference in inside
    diameters given above may be increased by 2% of the
    inside diameter of the opening.

    ■
    <
    %
    *

    Example: d = I.D. of nozzle


    shell I.D. = 24 inches x 1% =       .24in.
    nozzle I.D.= 10 inches x 2% =    + .20in.
    max. permissible deviation =       .44in.
    Tolerance For Formed Heads
    UG-81(a) The Inner surface of a torispherical, toriconical,
    hemispherical or ellipsoidal head shall not deviate:
    • outside the specified shape by more than 1 1/4 % of D*
    • inside the specified shape by more than 5/8 % ofD*
    • the knuckle radius shall not be less than that specified.
    *Note: D is the nominal inside diameter of the shell at the point of attachment
    Lugs And Fitting Attachment
    UG-82 Lugs, brackets, saddle type nozzles, manhole frames,
    reinforcement around openings, and other appurtenances
    shall be formed and fitted to conform reasonably to the
    curvature of the shell or surface to which they are attached.
    Requirements for pressure parts - UG 82(a)
    Requirements for nonpressure parts - UG 82(b)
    UG-82(a) When pressure parts, such as saddle type nozzles,
    manhole frames and reinforcement around openings extend
    over pressure retaining welds, such welds shall be ground
    flush for the portion of the weld to be covered.
    Lugs And Fitting Attachment
    UG-82(b) When nonpressure parts such as lugs, brackets,
    support legs and saddles extend extend over pressure
    retaining welds, such parts shall be ground flush as
    described in UG-82(a), or such parts shall be notched or
    coped to clear those welds.
