Key benefi ts

• Rapidly search,

manipulate, and apply

authoritative data in

analysis and design.

• Locate materials that

have desired properties

(or combinations of

properties) rather than

simply look up known

materials.

• Compare materials

quickly and easily:

select the right material

for your application.

• Export data directly

to computer aided

engineering and design

packages—including

Abaqus, ANSYS

Workbench, CATIA,

Pro/ENGINEER, Creo

Elements/Pro, and the

MatML format.

• Ensure that all of

your engineers see

the same, up-to-date,

version of the data.

Availability

• Via GRANTA MI as a

standalone database

or alongside corporate

and reference data.

• Within CAD or CAE

software using

MI:Materials Gateway

or GRANTA MI export

capabilities.

If you perform quantitative design and analysis for high performance

applications, for example in industries such as nuclear power,

chemical processing, and oil and gas, you will benefi t from complete,

searchable, and interactive access to the ASME Boiler and Pressure

Vessel Code Part II-D, Materials. This authoritative source of property

data is also the leading source of standards information and

specifi cations relating to materials for use in boilers, pressure vessel,

and power plant components.

Granta offers a data module that provides the ASME BPV Code Part II-D information

in electronic form, offering many advantages over traditional handbook or online

access to electronic copies (e.g., PDFs). You can:

• Access materials data from the ASME BPV Code via the simple browser-

based user interface of GRANTA MI, making it easy to search and view.

• Access both PDF copies of the ASME service book pages and a structured

‘live’ database providing the property data for search, comparison, analysis,

and export to CAE/CAD.

• Get property values as a function of temperature, allowing you to quickly

extract data for the operating environment you are studying.

• Link directly from items of data to the relevant PDF pages, providing full

traceability back to the source document for all information.

What is it?

Fully accessible mechanical and physical properties for 260 material standards,

470 materials. Part II-D provides tables of design stress values, tensile and yield

strength values, and tables and charts of material properties, including:

• Typical physical properties such as density, melting range, and specifi c heat.

• Maximum

allowable stress.

• Design stress

intensity.

• Tensile and

yield strengths.

• Thermal

expansion and

conductivity.

• Poisson’s ratio.
