I would like to ask about the corresponding content in Asme codes
Thread Content
I’m working on a foreign-related project that requires the use of ASME standards. What are the corresponding ASME standards for pressure pipeline classification – things like GC1 and so on – as well as for pressure testing and non-destructive testing (such as HG50235)?
The classification of pressure pipelines in ASME codes is primarily based on ASME B31.1 (power piping) or ASME B31.3 (process piping). For pressure testing, reference can be made to Section 345 of ASME B31.3; for flaw detection, ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section V should be consulted, as it covers the methods and standards for non-destructive testing. .
B31.1 Power piping; B31.3 Process piping; B31.4 Piping systems for transporting liquid hydrocarbons and other liquids; B31.5 Refrigeration piping; B31.8 Piping systems for gas transmission and distribution; B31.9 Building piping; B31.11 Slurry transportation piping systems. Each standard covers aspects such as design, materials, restrictions on piping components, fabrication, assembly, installation, inspection, testing, and more, constituting a comprehensive standard in itself. It is also managed by specialized standardization associations and professional organizations, resulting in a comprehensive management system that features good continuity, practicality, transparency, and advancement
