Nevertheless, some of the modules work, so I ran your numbers through
the spherical shell calculator.  The results shown below are in
compliance with the most recent ABS rules, with no additional safety
factor added.  I used your 6' dimension as the inner diameter, and
incremented shell thickness 0.0001 m at a time until the desired working
depth was reached.  Executive summary:  0.0378 m (1.4882 in) for A516 gr
70, and 0.0208 m (0.8189 in) for HY-80.  Details below:





Let me know if you want to run additional scenarios.

Sean
