ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel CODE
ASME's Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code controls the design, inspection, and repair of pressure vessels. The ASME B&PV Code has adopted the use of many ASTM NDT standards and practices. The ASTM documents are re-identified with a "S" preceding the "E" in the B&PV Code. For example, E-94 would become SE-94. NDT personnel are primarily concerned with the followings sections of the B&PV Code.
Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section V-Nondestructive ExaminationThis Section contains requirements and methods for nondestructive examination which are referenced and required by other code Sections. It also includes manufacturer's examination responsibilities, duties of authorized inspectors and requirements for qualification of personnel, inspection and examination. Examination methods are intended to detect surface and internal discontinuities in materials, welds, and fabricated parts and components.
Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII- Rules For Construction of Pressure Vessels Division 1This Division of Section VIII provides requirements applicable to the design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and certification of pressure vessels operating at either internal or external pressures exceeding 15 psig. Such pressure vessels may be fired or unfired.
Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII-Rules For Construction Of Pressure Vessels Division 2-Alternative RulesThis Division of Section VIII provides requirements applicable to the design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and certification of pressure vessels operating at either internal or external pressures exceeding 15 psig. Such vessels may be fired or unfired.
