ASME Section XIII does not define a minimum design pressure. Many vessels are designed for full vacuum according to the requirements of the code. A storage tank (API 650 or API 620) can be used in place of a pressure vessel provided that the gage pressure is not more than 15 pounds per square inch.
An ASME "U" stamp designates a vessel as a "pressure vessel" as defined and regulated by ASME codes
asme VIII
ASME stand for American Society of Mechanical Engineers
The BS equivalent of ASME B30.9, which pertains to slings used for lifting, is BS 7121. This British Standard outlines the requirements for the safe use of lifting equipment and accessories, including slings, ensuring proper design, manufacture, testing, and maintenance for safe lifting operations.
The ASME B31.3 code is not an exam but a standard for process piping design. However, if an exam is based on the content of ASME B31.3, it is typically closed book to assess the candidate's knowledge and understanding of the code without reference materials.
It's a code.
ASME having standards from A to Z .Y is the standard series for design series.
The design should conform to ASME Sec VIII Div.1.
This is the code for Process piping.

ASME B31.1
this valve is a requirement of the ASME code to complement the safety normal valves put on boilers, it functions receiving a contro signal whern the pressur of the boiler exceeds the maximum design pressure
API 1104 & asme B31
ASME was created in 1880.
What is difference between ASME B16 & ASME B16.5 Flange
The ASME U stamp designates an unfired pressure vessel of more than 35 gallons (4.68 cu. ft.) has been built to ASME Code specifications, under ASME Code section 8. A U-1 form must be filed and signed by the authorized inspector for each and every pressure vessel built. The ASME U2 stamp is for unfired pressure vessels not built to ASME section 8 div. 1 standards, but under the alternative rules, has been inspected and found to comply with acceptable construction methods. A U-1 form signed by an authorized inspector must be filed for each such vessel, along with a description of the methods of construction used. The ASME U3 stamp is for high pressure (over 600 psi?) unfired pressure vessels. The ASME UM stamp is for pressure vessels less than 35 gallons capacity.
