that material at room temperature, the hydrostatic test pressure shall be multiplied by a factor obtained by
dividing the allowable working stress for the material at room temperature by that at operating temperature.
The stress values used shall conform to those given in ANSI/ASME B31.3 for the vessels. The pressure
thus obtained shall be the minimum pressure at which the hydrostatic test shall be performed. VENDOR
