[PSUBS-MAILIST] ASME PVHO-1 Cast Acrylic Material Properties



 

This is the material properties in Stachiw's book I've been looking at.
 
From pages 1036 and 1037
 
Table 21.1 and 21.2 Specified values of physical properties for each acrylic casting
 
(to be verified by testing of specimen from each casting of lot)
 
(to be certified by the manufacture of material)
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
D638*      Tensile ultimate strength                 9,000 psi
                 Modulus of elasticity                       400,000 psi
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
D695*       Compressive yield strength            15,000 psi
                        Modulus of elasticity                400,000 psi
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

D790*       Flexural ultimate strength              14,000 psi
 
=======================================================================================
 
 
 
This also matches up with the data for  ASME PVHO-1  Minimums for cast acrylic in Table 2.5 on page 54.

This table compares PVHO minimums with Acrylite GP cast acrylic

D638*      Tensile ultimate strength                 9,000 psi        /      10,000 psi
                 Modulus of elasticity                       400,000 psi     /     400,000 psi
 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
D695*       Compressive yield strength            15,000 psi          /    18,000 psi
                        Modulus of elasticity                400,000 psi        /     430,000 psi
 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

D790*       Flexural ultimate strength              14,000 psi         /     16,500 psi
