2025 ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section II, Part D, Properties (Customary)

PUBLISH DATE 2025

The purpose of ASME BPVC.II.D.C-2025 is to serve as the definitive source for allowable stress values and material properties in U.S. Customary units for materials used in the construction of boilers, pressure vessels, and nuclear components. The "D.C" stands for D - Properties and C - Customary (U.S. customary units).

What It Is Used For ASME BPVC.II.D.C-2025 is a critical "Service Section" used by design engineers, analysts, and fabricators to perform all mandatory calculations for pressure equipment design. It is arguably the most essential reference document for the design sections of the BPVC. Its primary uses are:

Providing Allowable Stress Values: The core function is to provide the maximum allowable stress values (S) for all Code-approved ferrous and nonferrous materials at various design temperatures. These values are the single most important factor in determining the required thickness of a pressure vessel or boiler part.
Listing Physical and Mechanical Properties: It contains the necessary data for design calculations, including:
- Tensile and yield strength values.
- Physical properties like the Modulus of Elasticity (E) and Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (α).
External Pressure Design: It includes charts and tables for determining the thickness required to withstand external pressure (vacuum or jacket pressure), which prevents collapse in pressure components.
Design Basis: This section also includes the criteria and methodology that the ASME Code Committee uses to establish the allowable stress and design data, which is crucial for the approval of new materials and for design-by-analysis methods.

In summary, BPVC.II.D.C is the data manual that ensures consistency and safety across all construction Codes by providing the numerical values needed to size and justify every pressure-retaining component.
