  1. ASME CODES & STANDARDS Departement of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering - University of Indonesia By : Dwi Marta Nurjaya

  2. ASME Background • Founded: 1880 • 120,000 individual members; no corporate members • <400 staff • Not-for-profit organization • Focused on technical, educational and research issues • One of the world’s largest technical publishing operations • Holds numerous technical conferences worldwide • Offers professional development courses • Sets internationally recognized industrial and manufacturing codes and standards that enhance public welfare and safety

  3. What is a standard? • A standard can be defined as a set of technical definitions and guidelines that function as instructions for designers, manufacturers, operators, or users of equipment. • Standards, not having the force of law, are considered voluntary and serve as guidelines. ASME publishes standards and accredits users of standards toensure that they are capable of manufacturing products that meet those standards.

  4. What is a code? • A standard is a code when it has been adopted by one or more governmental bodies and is enforceable by law, or when it has been incorporated into a business contract.

  5. ASME Codes and Standards • ASME’s Codes and Standards organization develops and maintains standards and conformity assessment programs • First standard issued in 1884 • Approx. 600 consensus standards • Over 100 ASME standards committees • Over 3,600 volunteer committee members • Standards address pressure technology, nuclear, safety, standardization, and performance test codes • Conformity Assessment programs to accredit manufacturers of equipment

  6. ASME Codes and Standards • ASME’s Voluntary Consensus Process • Openness, balance of Interests, consensus, due process • American National Standards Institute (ANSI) accredited procedures • Compliance with World Trade Organization (WTO) Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) principles for international standards development • Transparency, openness, impartiality and consensus, effectiveness and relevance, coherence, and development dimension.

  7. How does ASME produce codes and standards? • ASME’s Council on Codes and Standards oversees six standards-developing supervisory boards and three advisory boards, which manage more than 100 committees and 3,600 volunteer members (see figure on next page). • The supervisory boards are responsible for pressure technology, nuclear installations, safety codes, per formance test codes, conformity assessment, andstandardization. • The advisory boards deal with international standards, hearings and appeals, and council operations.

  8. Standards development steps • Initiate Standards Action • Prerequisite technical work, R&D • Draft standard – project team • Distribute to cognizant groups for review and comment • Standards Committee approval • Public review • Supervisory Board approval • ANSI approval

  9. ASME Products • Codes and Standards • Conformity Assessment Programs • Training Courses

  10. ASME Codes and Standards • Component standards to ensure dimensional compatibility and to provide pressure / temperature ratings of piping, pipe threads, flanges, fittings, gaskets, etc. • Piping design and construction standards. • Boilers and pressure vessels. • In-service inspection, fitness-for-service evaluation, repair and testing.

  11. Conformity Assessment • ASME Product Certification Programs: • Boilers & pressure vessels • Nuclear components • Nuclear materials • Reinforced thermoset-plastic tanks

  12. Conformity Assessment (continued) • ASME Accreditation Programs: • Pressure relief device testing laboratories • Boiler & pressure vessel inspection agencies (AIAs) • Elevator inspector certification bodies

  13. ASME - Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code • 12 volume or code sections: I. Power Boilers II. Materials III. Rules for Construction of Nuclear Facility Components IV. Heating Boilers V.
