The strain gaging of pressure vessels (also known as pressure hulls) subjected to the external hydrostatic test pressure loading serves two purposes. First and foremost, the gaging is to monitor the structural behavior and response of the pressure vessel under external pressure load conditions. The resulting strains and stresses can then be compared to those obtained from the design analyses performed.
