Checklist

  • Material specification documented (alloy, heat treatment, product form)
  • Creep curve data available at the operating temperature
  • Stress-rupture data available at the operating temperature
  • Data covers the stress range of the analysis
  • Data source is traceable and qualified
  • Scatter in material data is assessed
  • No extrapolation beyond the data range without justification
  • Temperature-dependent elastic and plastic properties available
