: Lists specific steel grades and alloy types permitted for use. Testing & Marking
Materials must possess sufficient strength, toughness, and ductility to prevent brittle failure under operating conditions. W 1 dictates that material properties must be validated by tests. 2. Testing and Inspection The Merkblatt mandates rigorous testing, including:
(such as plates and sheets) made of unalloyed and alloyed ferritic steels used in the construction of pressure vessels. This data sheet is part of the larger AD 2000 Code
. For temperatures lower than this, the additional standard must be applied.
The W 1 standard ensures that materials are suited to withstand the mechanical and thermal loads applied to pressure equipment. 1. General Material Quality
