scope:
The design rules below apply to smooth cylindrical shells serving as shells of pressure vessels and to tubes subjected to external pressure having a Da/Di-ratio ≤ 1,2. In the case of tubes with Da ≤ 200 mm they apply furthermore up to a ratio Da/Di = 1,7. The cylindrical shells may be reinforced or unreinforced.
The pressure must act over the entire periphery. Additional account shall be taken, e.g. in accordance with [10], of axial loads which are higher than those attributable to the external overpressure.
