Only materials which are qualified for pressure equipment may be
used. There are three different ways for qualifying:
1. Materials from Europian harmonized standards, see table E2.1

If a fatigue analysis is required it can be performed according to


clause 17 (simplified fatigue analysis, rules only for cyclic pressure,
conservative) or clause 18 (detailed fatigue analysis, normally by
usage of FEM). NDT requirements according to Annex G of EN
13445-5 shall be used

Clause 11: Flanges
Flanges that conform to an EN standard for pipework flanges
(e.g.EN 1092-1) with pressure-temperature ratings may be used as
pressure vessel components without any calculation under
particular conditions.
Flange calculation in clause 11 is based on Taylor-Forge method
Alternative rules for narrow face gasket flange design in Annex G
are most appropriate when: a) thermal cycling is important, b) bolt
stress is controlled by use of a tightening procedure, c) there are
significant additional loadings (forces or moments) or d) leak
tightness is of special importance.

Annex B (normative) DBA direct route
As a complement and as an alternative to DBF
Flexibility due to the partial safety factor concept (for actions and
for
resistances)
Avoids uncertainties in stress categorisation due to direct
addressing of the relevant failure modes (e.g. via elastic-plastic
FEA)
Failure modes considered are: a)Gross plastic deformation,
b)Progressive deformation, c)Fatigue, d)Instability, e)Static
equilibrium.
New, innovative method for DBA, some principals might be
adapted by other codes (e.g. ASME VIII Div.2)
