FOREWORD

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers set up acommittee in 1911 for the purpose of formulating standardrules for the construction of steam boilers and other pres-sure vessels. This committee is now called the Boiler andPressure Vessel Committee.

The Committee’s function is to establish rules of safety,relating only to pressure integrity, governing the construc-tion1 of boilers, pressure vessels, transport tanks andnuclear components, and inservice inspection for pressureintegrity of nuclear components and transport tanks, andto interpret these rules when questions arise regarding theirintent. This code does not address other safety issues relat-ing to the construction of boilers, pressure vessels, transporttanks and nuclear components, and the inservice inspectionof nuclear components and transport tanks. The user ofthe Code should refer to other pertinent codes, standards,laws, regulations, or other relevant documents. With fewexceptions, the rules do not, of practical necessity, reflectthe likelihood and consequences of deterioration in servicerelated to specific service fluids or external operating envi-ronments. Recognizing this, the Committee has approveda wide variety of construction rules in this Section to allowthe user or his designee to select those which will providea pressure vessel having a margin for deterioration in ser-vice so as to give a reasonably long, safe period of use-fulness. Accordingly, it is not intended that this Sectionbe used as a design handbook; rather, engineering judgmentmust be employed in the selection of those sets of Coderules suitable to any specific service or need.

This Code contains mandatory requirements, specificprohibitions, and nonmandatory guidance for constructionactivities. The Code does not address all aspects of theseactivities and those aspects which are not specificallyaddressed should not be considered prohibited. The Codeis not a handbook and cannot replace education, experi-ence, and the use of engineering judgment. The phraseengineering judgment refers to technical judgments madeby knowledgeable designers experienced in the applicationof the Code. Engineering judgments must be consistentwith Code philosophy and such judgments must neverbe used to overrule mandatory requirements or specificprohibitions of the Code.

1 Construction, as used in this Foreword, is an all-inclusive term com-prising materials, design, fabrication, examination, inspection, testing,certification, and pressure relief.

vii

The Committee recognizes that tools and techniquesused for design and analysis change as technology prog-resses and expects engineers to use good judgment in theapplication of these tools. The designer is responsible forcomplying with Code rules and demonstrating compliancewith Code equations when such equations are mandatory.The Code neither requires nor prohibits the use of comput-ers for the design or analysis of components constructedto the requirements of the Code. However, designers andengineers using computer programs for design or analysisare cautioned that they are responsible for all technicalassumptions inherent in the programs they use and theyare responsible for the application of these programs totheir design.

The Code does not fully address tolerances. Whendimensions, sizes, or other parameters are not specifiedwith tolerances, the values of these parameters are consid-ered nominal and allowable tolerances or local variancesmay be considered acceptable when based on engineeringjudgment and standard practices as determined by thedesigner.

The Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee deals withthe care and inspection of boilers and pressure vessels inservice only to the extent of providing suggested rules ofgood practice as an aid to owners and their inspectors.

The rules established by the Committee are not to beinterpreted as approving, recommending, or endorsing anyproprietary or specific design or as limiting in any way themanufacturer’s freedom to choose any method of designor any form of construction that conforms to the Code rules.

The Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee meets regu-larly to consider revisions of the rules, new rules as dictatedby technological development, Code Cases, and requestsfor interpretations. Only the Boiler and Pressure VesselCommittee has the authority to provide official interpreta-tions of this Code. Requests for revisions, new rules, CodeCases, or interpretations shall be addressed to the Secretaryin writing and shall give full particulars in order to receiveconsideration and action (see Mandatory Appendix cov-ering preparation of technical inquiries). Proposed revi-sions to the Code resulting from inquiries will be presentedto the Main Committee for appropriate action. The actionof the Main Committee becomes effective only after con-firmation by letter ballot of the Committee and approvalby ASME.

Proposed revisions to the Code approved by the Commit-tee are submitted to the American National Standards Insti-tute and published at http://cstools.asme.org/csconnect/public/index.cfm?PublicReviewpRevisions to invite com-ments from all interested persons. After the allotted timefor public review and final approval by ASME, revisionsare published in updates to the Code.

Code Cases may be used in the construction of compo-nents to be stamped with the ASME Code symbol begin-ning with the date of their approval by ASME.

After Code revisions are approved by ASME, they maybe used beginning with the date of issuance. Revisions,except for revisions to material specifications in SectionII, Parts A and B, become mandatory six months after suchdate of issuance, except for boilers or pressure vesselscontracted for prior to the end of the six-month period.Revisions to material specifications are originated by theAmerican Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) andother recognized national or international organizations,and are usually adopted by ASME. However, those revi-sions may or may not have any effect on the suitability ofmaterial, produced to earlier editions of specifications, foruse in ASME construction. ASME material specificationsapproved for use in each construction Code are listed inthe Guidelines for Acceptable ASTM Editions and in theGuidelines for Acceptable Non-ASTM Editions, in SectionII, Parts A and B. These Guidelines list, for each specifica-tion, the latest edition adopted by ASME, and earlier andlater editions considered by ASME to be identical forASME construction.

The Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee in the formu-lation of its rules and in the establishment of maximumdesign and operating pressures considers materials, con-struction, methods of fabrication, inspection, and safetydevices.

The Code Committee does not rule on whether a compo-nent shall or shall not be constructed to the provisions ofthe Code. The Scope of each Section has been establishedto identify the components and parameters considered bythe Committee in formulating the Code rules.

Questions or issues regarding compliance of a specificcomponent with the Code rules are to be directed to theASME Certificate Holder (Manufacturer). Inquiries con-cerning the interpretation of the Code are to be directed

viii

to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Committee.ASME is to be notified should questions arise concerningimproper use of an ASME Code symbol.

The specifications for materials given in Section II areidentical with or similar to those of specifications publishedby ASTM, AWS, and other recognized national or interna-tional organizations. When reference is made in an ASMEmaterial specification to a non-ASME specification forwhich a companion ASME specification exists, the refer-ence shall be interpreted as applying to the ASME materialspecification. Not all materials included in the materialspecifications in Section II have been adopted for Codeuse. Usage is limited to those materials and grades adoptedby at least one of the other Sections of the Code for applica-tion under rules of that Section. All materials allowed bythese various Sections and used for construction within thescope of their rules shall be furnished in accordance withmaterial specifications contained in Section II or referencedin the Guidelines for Acceptable Editions in Section II,Parts A and B, except where otherwise provided in CodeCases or in the applicable Section of the Code. Materialscovered by these specifications are acceptable for use initems covered by the Code Sections only to the degreeindicated in the applicable Section. Materials for Code useshould preferably be ordered, produced, and documentedon this basis; Guidelines for Acceptable Editions inSection II, Part A and Guidelines for Acceptable Editionsin Section II, Part B list editions of ASME and year datesof specifications that meet ASME requirements and whichmay be used in Code construction. Material produced toan acceptable specification with requirements differentfrom the requirements of the corresponding specificationslisted in the Guidelines for Acceptable Editions in Part Aor Part B may also be used in accordance with the above,provided the material manufacturer or vessel manufacturercertifies with evidence acceptable to the Authorized Inspec-tor that the corresponding requirements of specificationslisted in the Guidelines for Acceptable Editions in Part Aor Part B have been met. Material produced to an acceptablematerial specification is not limited as to country of origin.

When required by context in this Section, the singularshall be interpreted as the plural, and vice-versa; and thefeminine, masculine, or neuter gender shall be treated assuch other gender as appropriate.

STATEMENT OF POLICY (10)

ON THE USE OF CODE SYMBOLS AND

CODE AUTHORIZATION IN ADVERTISING

ASME has established procedures to authorize qualifiedorganizations to perform various activities in accordancewith the requirements of the ASME Boiler and PressureVessel Code. It is the aim of the Society to provide recogni-tion of organizations so authorized. An organization hold-ing authorization to perform various activities inaccordance with the requirements of the Code may statethis capability in its advertising literature.

Organizations that are authorized to use Code Symbolsfor marking items or constructions that have been con-structed and inspected in compliance with the ASME Boilerand Pressure Vessel Code are issued Certificates of Autho-rization. It is the aim of the Society to maintain the standingof the Code Symbols for the benefit of the users, theenforcement jurisdictions, and the holders of the symbolswho comply with all requirements.

Based on these objectives, the following policy has beenestablished on the usage in advertising of facsimiles of thesymbols, Certificates of Authorization, and reference toCode construction. The American Society of Mechanical

STATEMENT OF POLICY

ON THE USE OF ASME MARKING

TO IDENTIFY MANUFACTURED ITEMS

The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code providesrules for the construction of boilers, pressure vessels, andnuclear components. This includes requirements for mate-rials, design, fabrication, examination, inspection, andstamping. Items constructed in accordance with all of theapplicable rules of the Code are identified with the officialCode Symbol Stamp described in the governing Sectionof the Code.

Markings such as “ASME,” “ASME Standard,” or anyother marking including “ASME” or the various Code

ix

Engineers does not “approve,” “certify,” “rate,” or“endorse” any item, construction, or activity and there shallbe no statements or implications that might so indicate. Anorganization holding a Code Symbol and/or a Certificate ofAuthorization may state in advertising literature that items,constructions, or activities “are built (produced or per-formed) or activities conducted in accordance with therequirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure VesselCode,” or “meet the requirements of the ASME Boiler andPressure Vessel Code.” An ASME corporate logo shall notbe used by any organization other than ASME.

The ASME Symbol shall be used only for stamping andnameplates as specifically provided in the Code. However,facsimiles may be used for the purpose of fostering theuse of such construction. Such usage may be by an associa-tion or a society, or by a holder of a Code Symbol whomay also use the facsimile in advertising to show thatclearly specified items will carry the symbol. General usageis permitted only when all of a manufacturer’s items areconstructed under the rules.

Symbols shall not be used on any item that is not con-structed in accordance with all of the applicable require-ments of the Code.

Items shall not be described on ASME Data ReportForms nor on similar forms referring to ASME that tendto imply that all Code requirements have been met when,in fact, they have not been. Data Report Forms coveringitems not fully complying with ASME requirements shouldnot refer to ASME or they should clearly identify all excep-tions to the ASME requirements.

GUIDELINE ON THE APPROVAL OF NEW WELDINGAND BRAZING MATERIAL CLASSIFICATIONS UNDER

THE ASME BOILER AND PRESSURE VESSEL CODE

Code Policy. It is the policy of the ASME Boiler andPressure Vessel Committee to adopt for inclusion in Sec-tion II, Part C, only such specifications as have beenadopted by the American Welding Society (AWS), and byother recognized national or international organizations.

It is expected that requests for Code approval will nor-mally be for welding and brazing materials (hereaftertermed “consumables”) for which there is a recognizednational or international specification. For consumablesmade to a recognized national or international specificationother than those of the AWS, the inquirer shall give noticeto the standards developing organization that a request hasbeen made to ASME for adoption of their specificationunder the ASME Code, and shall request that the organiza-tion to grant ASME permission to reprint the standard. Forother consumables, a request shall be made to the AWS,or a recognized national or international organization, todevelop a specification that can be presented to the CodeCommittee.

It is the policy of the ASME Boiler and Pressure VesselCommittee to consider requests to adopt new consumablesfor use by boiler, pressure vessel, or nuclear power plantcomponent Manufacturers or end users. Further, suchrequests should be for consumables for which there is areasonable expectation of use in a boiler, pressure vessel,or nuclear power plant component constructed to the rulesof one of the Sections of this Code.

Application. The inquirer shall identify to the Commit-tee all product forms, size ranges, and specifications forwhich incorporation is desired, and state whether or notthe consumable is covered by patents, whether or not it islicensed, and if licensed, any limitations on its manufacture.

Weldability/Brazability. The inquirer shall furnishcomplete data on procedure qualification tests made inaccordance with the requirements of Section IX. Such testsshall be made over the full range of base metal thicknessin which the consumable is to be used. Pertinent informa-tion on deposited metal, such as effects from postweld heattreatment, susceptibility to air hardening, effects of joiningprocesses, expected notch toughness values, and theamount of experience in use of the consumable shall begiven.

Physical Changes. For new consumables, it is importantto know the structural stability characteristics and thedegree of retention of properties with exposure at tempera-ture. The influence of welding or brazing and thermaltreatment operations on the mechanical properties, ductil-ity, and microstructure of the deposited metal are impor-tant, particularly where degradation in properties mayoccur. Where particular temperature ranges of exposure orheat treatment, cooling rates, combinations of mechanicalworking and thermal treatments, fabrication practices,exposure to particular environments, etc., cause significantchanges in the mechanical properties, microstructure,resistance to brittle fracture, etc., it is of prime importanceto call attention to those conditions that should be avoidedin service or in manufacture of parts or vessels using theconsumable.

Requests for Additional Data. The Committee mayrequest additional data, including data on properties ordeposited metal behavior not explicitly treated in the con-struction Code in which adoption is desired.

Code Case. The Code Committee will consider the issu-ance of an ASME Code Case, to be effective for a periodof three years, permitting the treatment of a new weldingor brazing material under an existing ASME Section IXgrouping for qualification purposes, provided that the fol-lowing conditions are met:

(a) The inquirer provides evidence that a request forcoverage of the consumable in a specification has beenmade to the AWS or a recognized national or internationalorganization;

(b) the consumable is commercially available and canbe purchased within the proposed specification require-ments;

(c) the inquirer shows that there will be a reasonabledemand for the consumable by industry and that thereexists an urgency for approval by means of a Code Case;

(d) the request for approval of the consumable shallclearly describe it in specification form, including applica-ble items as scope, process, manufacture, conditions fordelivery, heat treatment, chemical and tensile requirements,testing specifications and requirements, workmanship, fin-ish, marking, inspection, and rejection;

(e) all other requirements identified previously underCode Policy and Application apply; and

(f) the inquirer shall furnish the Code Committee withall the data specified in this Guideline.

Requirements for Requests for ASME Acceptance ofWelding and Brazing Material Specifications to Recog-nized National or International Standards Other Thanthe AWS. The Committee will consider only requests inaccordance with the Boiler and Pressure Vessel CommitteeOperating and Administrative Procedures, OP-8.6 (Englishlanguage: U.S. or SI/metric units). The Committee willconsider accepting specifications of recognized national orinternational organizations in accordance with OP-8.6 suchas, but not limited to, AWS, CSA, CEN, DIN, and JIS.Consumable specifications of other than national or interna-tional organizations, such as those of consumable produc-ers and suppliers, will not be considered for acceptance.

Requirements for Recognized National or Interna-tional Specifications. Acceptable consumable specifica-tions will be identified by date or edition. Approvededition(s) will be stated in the subtitle of the ASME speci-fication. Minimum requirements that must be contained ina consumable specification for which acceptance is beingrequested include such items as name of national or interna-tional organization, scope, reference documents, process,manufacture, conditions for delivery, heat treatment, chem-ical and tensile requirements, testing specifications andrequirements, workmanship, finish, marking, inspection,and rejection.

Publication of Recognized National or InternationalSpecifications. Specifications for which ASME has notbeen given permission to publish by the originating organi-zation will be referenced on a cover sheet in appropriateAppendices in Section II, Part C, along with information

on where to obtain a copy of those documents. Documentsthat are referenced in non-AWS consumable specificationswill not be published by ASME. However, information onwhere to obtain a copy of those documents will be main-tained in Section II, Part C. Additions and exceptions tothe consumable specification will be noted in the subtitleof the specification.

New Welding and Brazing Materials Checklist. Toassist inquirers desiring Code coverage for new consum-ables, or extending coverage of existing consumables, theCommittee has developed the following checklist of itemsthat ought to be addressed by each inquiry. The Committeereserves the right to request additional data and applicationinformation when considering new consumables.

(a) Has a qualified inquirer request been provided?(b) Has a request for either revision to existing Code

requirements or for a Code Case been defined?(c) Has a letter to the AWS been submitted requesting

coverage of the new consumable in a specification, andhas a copy been submitted to the Committee? Alternatively,is this consumable already covered by a specification issuedby a recognized national or international organization, andhas an English language version been provided?

(d) Has the Construction Code and Division coveragebeen identified?

(e) Have mechanical property data been submitted (ulti-mate tensile strength, yield strength, reduction of area, andelongation) for each intended joining process?

(f) Have toughness considerations required by the Con-struction Code been defined and has appropriate data beensubmitted?

(g) Have joining requirements been defined and hasprocedure qualification test data been submitted?

(h) Has influence of fabrication practices on depositedmetal properties been defined?

SUBMITTAL OFTECHNICAL INQUIRIES TO THE BOILER

AND PRESSURE VESSEL COMMITTEE

1 INTRODUCTION

(a) This Section provides guidance to Code users forsubmitting technical inquiries to the Committee. SeeGuideline on the Approval of New Materials Under theASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code in Section II, PartsC and D for additional requirements for requests involvingadding new materials to the Code. Technical inquiriesinclude requests for revisions or additions to the Coderules, requests for Code Cases, and requests for Code inter-pretations, as described below.

(1) Code Revisions. Code revisions are considered toaccommodate technological developments, address admin-istrative requirements, incorporate Code Cases, or to clarifyCode intent.

(2) Code Cases. Code Cases represent alternatives oradditions to existing Code rules. Code Cases are writtenas a question and reply, and are usually intended to beincorporated into the Code at a later date. When used,Code Cases prescribe mandatory requirements in the samesense as the text of the Code. However, users are cautionedthat not all jurisdictions or owners automatically acceptCode Cases. The most common applications for CodeCases are:

(a) to permit early implementation of an approvedCode revision based on an urgent need

(b) to permit the use of a new material for Codeconstruction

(c) to gain experience with new materials or alter-native rules prior to incorporation directly into the Code

(3) Code Interpretations. Code Interpretations pro-vide clarification of the meaning of existing rules in theCode, and are also presented in question and reply format.Interpretations do not introduce new requirements. In caseswhere existing Code text does not fully convey the meaningthat was intended, and revision of the rules is required tosupport an interpret
