Hi Everbody
A client mentioned this material ASTM SA 387 GR D - the fabrication was done in 1969. Does anybody know what is the modern equivalent of this material? Is it similar to P11 or P22? I can not find any reference in ASME II.
Thanks

Sorry for aking but do you want to reduce the design spectrum to make your analysis easier or do you want to test to a reduced or full load spectrum? Are your consern the dynamic systems (rotor, drive system) or the structural loads?
Your design full load spectrum should be a baseline...

Thank you for the reference, I also found a correlation in API 579 between Kic and Charpy - however I shall act with caution as proposed by Metengr.
I do not understand why data on both these parameters are not more widely published.

Thanks for the info, I am trying to get a conservative value for the different materials (pressure equipment) and I want to convert Charpy to Kic to be able to calculate critical crack sizes for different cracks detected during maintenece inspections. Thanks again for the link.
Does anybody have a curve or data of Charpy impact values vs temperature (-50C TO 150C) for typical pressure vessel low alloy steels such as SA53, SA106B, SA216, SA516,SA105?
Thanks for your help
