ASME BPVC (Boiler and pressure vessels code) Section VIII - Rules for construction of pressure vessels

Division 1 of Section VIII of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessels Code provides requirements applicable to the design, fabrication, inspection, testing, and certification of pressure vessels operating at either internal or external pressures exceeding 15 psig. The pressure vessels may be fired or unfired. There are specific requirements that apply to several classes of material used in pressure vessel construction, and also to fabrication methods such as welding, forging, and brazing. The standard contains mandatory and non-mandatory appendices detailing supplementary design criteria, nondestructive examination and inspection acceptance standards. Rules pertaining to the use of the U, UM and UV Code symbol stamps are also included.
