The meaning of symbols is as follows : t = Calculated minimum wall thickness of cylindrical shell in mm excluding any additional thickness to resist influences other than those of internal pressure and of external forces due to normal handling. Calculated minimum wall thickness of torispherical or semiEllipsoidal ends in mm. Test pressure in kgf/cm2 Inner diameter in mm Outer Diameter in mm Weld joint factor 1.0, if each weld is to be fully radio-graphed 0.9 for cylinders with circumferential seam or seams only (not radio-graphed) 0.9 for cylinders with seams other than circumferential which Are spot radio graphed 0.7 for all other cases.
