A compressed air vessel has an inside diameter of 2 m and a plate thickness of 12,5 mm. If the tensile stress induced in the plating is to be limited to 100 MPa, calculate for both the longitudinal and circumferential seams the pressure necessary to induce this stress. Take the longitudinal and circumferential joint 85% and efficiencies as 70% respectively. What would the actual allowable pressure be?
