I am really puzzles as to what you mean by a bomb. If it is something cylindrical or spherical, the thickness calc formula is same as even in ASME Sec VIII Div 1 only allowable stresses will change and you get this value from ASME Sec II.
What is this stress intensification factor: Are you meaning it the allowable stress? UTS/ 3 and YS/1.5 will give you the value for Div 2 requirements , again refer Sec II if the material is listed.
Refer any Piping design handbook for layout knowledge or attend any course on Piping tech.
