The creep crack growth properties in 3.3NiCrMoV steel were investigated at 55$0^{\circ}C$ by using CT specimen under constant load and constant Ct condition that was held during crack growth of Imm distance. Ct lelied on load line displacement rate, C＊usually increased with crack length though load is reduced in order to maintain constant Ct value as crack growth and appeared scatter band. At constant load and Ct region, crack growth slope was 0.900 and 0.844 each, on the other hand C＊ slope was 0.480. Fully coalesced area(FCA) ahead of crack tip increased as Ct increase to the critical value, and after that value FCA decreased. For the tertiary creep stage of crack growth test, the most of displacement was due to the steady state creep, except only small part due to the primary creep and other effects. Therefore, tests were mainly interrupted in the tertiary stage to obtain high value of Ct.

The creep crack growth properties in 3.5NiCrMoV steel were investigated at $550^{\circ}C$ by using CT specimen under constant $C_t$ condition that was held during crack growth of 1mm distance. $C_t$ lely on load line displacement rate and $C^*$ usually increase with crack length though load is reduced in order to maintain constant $C_t$ value as crack growth. Fully coalesced area(FCA) ahead of crack tip tend to increase as $C_t$ increase to the critical value, and after that value FCA decrease. For the tertiary creep stage of crack growth test, the most of displacement is due to the steady state creep, except only small part due to the primary creep and other effects. Therefore, tests were mainly interrupted in the tertiary stage to obtain high value of $C_t$. At constant load and $C_t$ region, crack growth slope was 0.900 and 0.844 each, on the other hand $C^*$ slope was 0.480.
